Christmas Morning Traditions
Do you have a Christmas morning tradition? Besides the mad rush of kids tearing open all the presents Santa left under the tree does your family celebrate Christmas morning with a special holiday family breakfast?
One of the easiest ways to celebrate Christmas morning with a special breakfast is to make this easy Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Eggnog French Toast recipe.
I never enjoyed preparing breakfast on Christmas morning until I started cooking is my (affiliate links below) Crock-Pot® slow cooker. I already had plenty of clean up to do with all the wrapping paper and toy packaging mess the kids had all over the house.
After staying up wrapping the last of the Christmas gifts until the wee hours of the morning on Christmas Eve I was too exhausted to even entertain the thought of cooking a big breakfast for the family on Christmas morning until I started making Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker breakfast casserole recipes.
Now, thanks to my Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker it's very easy to make a special breakfast on Christmas morning. I can cook a no hands on breakfast casserole recipe like this Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Eggnog French Toast recipe in my Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker. While the slow cooker does all the work I can still enjoy the kids and grandkids as they unwrap their presents on Christmas morning.

This Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker french toast recipe is very easy to make and you don't have to get your hands all messy from dipping the bread slices into the egg mixture. Layer sliced bread into a Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker.
Mix the eggs, cinnamon, and nutmeg together.
Add your favorite eggnog to the egg mixture.
Sprinkle some toasted bread cubes on the top to give the Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Eggnog French toast a little bit of a crunch.
Put it all in a Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker and cook for 3-6 hours depending on the temperature you set the Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker on. I cooked this recipe for about 3 ⅓ hours on the high setting.
Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker casserole recipe cooking times
I used the Crock-Pot brand 3.5-Quart Casserole Crock Manual Slow Cooker to make this Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Eggnog French Toast recipe.
The Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker Eggnog French Toast was cooked perfectly. The eggnog mixture of the recipe was cooked through and the french toast was moist and delicious.
If you make this Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker breakfast casserole recipe in a deeper Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker like an oval or round 4-6 quart Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker the cooking time is going to be longer, Because the thickness (center) of the filling is going to take much longer to cook thoroughly.
If you are using a deeper Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker it may take at least 5 hours to cook. You will have to check the center to see if the eggnog mixture has cooked completely.
You could check the center with a thermometer. Egg dishes are safe at an internal temperature of 160 F. on a instant-read food thermometer.
This is why my Crock-Pot® brand 3.5-Quart Casserole Manual Slow Cooker is my favorite Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker when making a casserole recipe.
