It's a clear culinary celebration of holiday flavors – the eggnog (or in the case of this recipe, eggnog liqueur) speaks for itself, but the ginger, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg really shine through and elevate the season.

The secret to perfecting this eggnog French toast is making it with St Pierre brioche bread. Each slice will soak up the creamy batter, helping craft a satisfying bite every time. Top everything off with caramelized oranges and toffee sauce, and you will be amazed.

This eggnog French toast recipe will be your go-to for family brunch and the post-gift opening feast. Here's how to make it!

Ingredients For Eggnog French Toast

This festive eggnog French toast features not only a stack of tender brioche bread, but a generous amount of sweet, sweet toppings like caramelized oranges and toffee sauce. What gives this recipe its charm is the range of warm spices you'll use in the eggnog concoction – nutmeg and cinnamon seal the deal!

Eggnog French toast makes for the ultimate post-Christmas breakfast or brunch. This recipe requires just 30 minutes in the kitchen to yield something truly magical. Here's what you'll need to make it:

  • 8 slices St Pierre Brioche Loaf
  • 2 small oranges
  • 1 oz butter
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • 1 oz light brown sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 200ml heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp Eggnog liqueur
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp superfine sugar
  • Vegetable oil or butter for frying
  • Toffee or caramel sauce to serve

How To Make Eggnog French Toast

  1. First make the caramelized oranges. Trim the top off each orange then place on a board with the flat (trimmed) ends down. Using a small knife carefully cut downwards, following the curve of the fruit, to remove the peel. Now place the oranges on their sides and cut into thin slices about ⅛ of an inch.
  2. Melt the butter in non-stick skillet over high heat. Add the sugar and ginger and stir then bubble for 3 minutes. Add the orange slices and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly caramelized. Carefully remove with a spatula and set aside on a plate.
  3. Add the eggs, cream, vanilla, Eggnog liqueur, nutmeg, cinnamon and sugar to a wide bowl and whisk together until well combined.
  4. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat and add ½ tsp oil and ½ tsp butter.
  5. Dip a slice of brioche loaf into the egg and cream mixture, then add to the skillet. Repeat with another slice or two, depending on how many you can fit in your skillet.
  6. Fry for a couple of minutes until golden then turn and cook the other side. Lift out onto warmed plates then repeat with the other slices.
  7. Pile up the French toast then top with the caramelized oranges and drizzle over the toffee or caramel sauce to serve.

This post has been updated with additional reporting by Meredith Holser.

Grey's Anatomy first premiered on March 27, 2005, and has remained a powerhouse medical drama ever since.

Fans immediately fell in love with the OG surgical interns, including Meredith, Cristina, Izzie, Alex, and George, as well as authority figures like Dr. Miranda Bailey and Dr. Richard Webber. And, of course, we can't forget about Meredith's heartthrob affair partner-turned-husband, Dr. Derek Shepherd, also known as "McDreamy."

The show followed the original cast as they all delved deeper into their careers, encountering riveting medical cases and plenty of interpersonal relationship drama along the way.

However, since Grey's Anatomy has continued running for 21 seasons, the show has needed plenty of extra, outside actors to portray patients, bereaved loved ones, and sometimes, other doctors. That's precisely how so many celebrities ended up making appearances on the beloved drama.

Let's take a walk down memory lane and revisit some Grey's Anatomy celeb cameos you might've forgotten even happened. Warning: spoilers abound.

Scroll to see all the Grey's Anatomy celebrity cameo you totally forgot happened!

Youtube

1. Sarah Paulson

Fans of Grey's Anatomy know that one of the overarching themes of the show is Meredith's familial trauma and how it follows her into her adult life.

She was raised by Dr. Ellis Grey, a trailblazing female surgeon who struggled to balance her medical career with being a supportive mother. Meredith also has an alcoholic father, later learns about her mother's affair with Dr. Richard Webber, and winds up having two half-sisters.

So, in Season 6 Episode 15, actress Sarah Paulson, most known for her role in American Horror Story, starred as a young Ellis Grey in a flashback as she worked alongside Dr. Webber on a 1982 AIDs case.

Youtube

2. Tessa Thompson

You might've forgotten how, in Season 2, Dr. Webber's 14-year-old niece, Camille, arrived at the hospital on her prom night. This important role was played by Tessa Thompson, who has been in movies like Thor: Ragnarok and Men in Black: International, as well as the popular TV show Westworld.

In this Grey's Anatomy episode, Camille gets busy with her boyfriend Brian when she passes out. It was discovered that Camille had ovarian cancer, so her surgical team removed one of her ovaries. Then, in Season 4, Camille returns after realizing her cancer has spread and she's going to die.

This was a gut-wrenching subplot that hit especially close to home among viewers due to the sheer love the fanbase developed for Dr. Webber.

Youtube

3. Sarah Chalke

Sarah Chalke moved women everywhere with her performance as Kate Mularkey in the TV series Firefly Lane. However, years earlier, she also appeared on Grey's Anatomy as a terrified yet diligent single mother named Casey Hedges.

In Season 9, Episode 19, Casey arrives at the hospital with her young son, who is experiencing a host of symptoms that resemble a virus. Nonetheless, she doesn't back down and keeps researching until she ultimately helps her son get diagnosed with Kawasaki disease.

Youtube

4. Millie Bobby Brown

Before Millie Bobby Brown became known as the powerful Eleven on Stranger Things, she joined the Grey's Anatomy cast for Season 11, Episode 15. She played Ruby, a little girl who called the hospital directly after her mother fell, and she wasn't able to get in touch with emergency services due to an earthquake.

Dr. Owen Hunt and Dr. Amelia Shepherd are forced to teach Ruby how to check her mother's breathing and perform chest compressions over the phone. Then, when the battery on Ruby's phone runs out, she's left on her own until emergency services show up.

Youtube

5. Abigail Breslin

In Season 3, Episode 3, the young Abigail Breslin made a notable appearance as a patient of Dr. Alex Karev's. She starred as Megan Clover, a little girl who thought she had superpowers because she didn't have the ability to feel pain.

Megan was ultimately diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder known as congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA).

Youtube

6. Dylan Minnette

Before Dylan Minnette took on his most famous role as Clay Jensen in 13 Reasons Why, he depicted an adorable little boy named Ryan in Season 4, Episode 5 of Grey's Anatomy.

Ryan was born with no external ears, so he goes "trick or treating for ears" with Meredith in order to get other surgical staff members on board for a pro bono ear reconstruction surgery.

Youtube

7. Ernie Hudson

Ernie Hudson, the beloved Ghostbusters star, also made an unexpected cameo in Season 8, Episode 7. He played Dr. Brad McDougall, a doctor from Seattle Presbyterian.

Dr. Owen Hunt, who was, at that point, in the show, the Chief of Surgery, is trying to get his staff ready for a big softball game against the rival hospital. Ernie Hudson winds up delivering some nice trash talk as he leads his team on the diamond.

Tiktok

8. Leslie Grossman

Finally, you might best know Leslie Grossman from American Horror Story: Cult, but she played a woman named Lauren Hammer in Season 5, Episode 9 of Grey's Anatomy.

Lauren shows up at the hospital with stomach pain and believes she has cancer, but her husband, Seth, claims she's just a hypochondriac. In the end, it turned out she'd just given herself a staph infection from taking antibiotics she had purchased online.

Sitcoms have been a TV staple for decades — and nowadays, everyone has their own comfort series. It's the show you can always rely on (and rewatch) to make you laugh or simply give you an escape from the stresses of day-to-day life.

So, while sitcoms may have quirky, offbeat humor or sometimes predictable character tropes, we continue returning to them time and time again. And if you haven't yet found your go-to TV show, there are plenty out to fit every taste.

Here are some of the best sitcoms ever that have rightfully earned their place in TV history.

Scroll to see the best sitcoms of all time!

Castle Rock Entertainment

1. Seinfeld

Seinfeld broke new ground in the world of sitcoms by introducing a more cynical, no-nonsense approach to its characters (and the situations they found themselves in).

The series famously followed the "no hugging, no learning" rule, meaning Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer never really grew or learned from their mistakes. This made their misadventures even more absurd and entertaining.

At its core, Seinfeld wasn't about grand life lessons or heartfelt moments, like other cornier sitcoms. Rather, it focused on the often overlooked details of everyday life and reflected the darker side of human nature in a hilarious way.

NBC Universal Television

2. The Office

The U.S. version of The Office became a true cultural phenomenon during its run and continues to be a pop culture staple today.

On the surface, it's a simple show about the daily lives of quirky employees at a paper company known as Dunder Mifflin. However, its true charm lies in the awkward and comedic dynamics between the characters.

It's one of the most beloved comfort sitcoms out there, with an underlying romance plot between Jim and Pam that had viewers hooked for seasons.

Paramount

3. Everybody Hates Chris

One sitcom that's arguably underrated is Everybody Hates Chris, which blended unique humor with social commentary. Created by Chris Rock, the show offers a semi-autobiographical look at his life growing up in New York during the 1980s.

It mixes his sharp comedic style with reflections on race, inequality, and social issues of the time. Tyler James Williams delivers an outstanding performance as young Chris Rock, while Terry Crews and Tichinia Arnold shine as his parents.

Fox

4. New Girl

New Girl offers a classic sitcom setup featuring a group of roommates who navigate work, romance, and the ups and downs of living together. Jess, played by Zooey Deschanel, is the only female roommate, which stirs up awkward scenarios, funny hijinks, and even drama at some points.

She's joined by Nick, Schmidt, and Winston, played by Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield, and Lamorne Morris, respectively. Each male character's unique personality and quirks really round out the show and make for dynamic on-screen energy that's endlessly entertaining.

NBC

5. Modern Family

Modern Family made its mark as one of the standout sitcoms of the 2010s. It ran for 11 successful seasons and captured what it means to be a family in the modern day.

On paper, it might just seem like another family-centered show, but the series' mockumentary format sets it apart. It also shines a light on the inner workings and common challenges of blended families, which is brought to life by a standout cast, including Ed O'Neill, Sofía Vergara, Julie Bowen, Ty Burrell, Sarah Hyland, Eric Stonestreet, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Ariel Winter, Nolan Gould, and Rico Rodriguez.

CBC

6. Schitt's Creek

This sitcom follows a wealthy family who suddenly loses everything and is forced to move to a small, rundown town they once bought as a joke. Schitt's Creek begins as a comedic tale of survival among the entitled, but it quickly evolves into a heartwarming story of family bonding and personal growth.

The once-snobbish characters, played by the father-son duo Eugene Levy and Dan Levy, as well as Catherine O'Hara and Annie Murphy, figure out how to adapt to a humbler lifestyle and become more relatable, likable, and genuinely better people over time.

HBO

7. Curb Your Enthusiasm

From the creator of Seinfeld himself came Curb Your Enthusiasm, a masterclass in Larry David's distinctive brand of dark, edgy, and sometimes uncomfortable humor. He plays a fictionalized version of himself as he navigates a world that seems to despise him.

Larry is constantly getting into trouble in even the most simple scenarios, purely because he's prone to being socially inappropriate. But despite his often misguided behavior, there are some moments where he actually has a valid point or commentary about social expectations in day-to-day life, making him oddly relatable to the general viewer.

The premise of Curb Your Enthusiasm is simple, but Larry consistently found new angles to keep the humor fresh. This allowed the show to thrive for 12 whole seasons.

Fox

8. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Last but not least is Brooklyn Nine-Nine, a sitcom that took workplace comedy to another, over-the-top level. It's set in a police precinct but never leans too far into the tense or dramatic moments.

Instead, it opts for broad, quirky humor and lovable characters played by stars such as Andy Samberg, Stephanie Beatriz, Melissa Fumero, Chelsea Peretti, Terry Crews, Joe Lo Truglio, and Andre Braugher.

When it comes to skincare, many people believe that products with higher price tags will give them better results. But what if you could achieve the same firming, lifting, and hydrating effects of luxury creams without spending a small fortune?

Instead of dropping upwards of $100 (or even more) on high-end moisturizers, shoppers are turning to a budget-friendly alternative. Known as LilyAna Naturals Face Lift Cream, it's priced at just $18 and is said to give you firmer and fuller-looking skin. Here's what you should know about it!

The company launched in a small Mississippi town in 2014 and is owned by siblings Retta Abraham and Menna Samaha. It's since become "one of the largest, cleanest Amazon-born skincare brands."

"LilyAna Naturals is proud to be a brand that operates from a place of goodness and love, centered on family and community, right down to the brand name – LilyAna. Lily and Ana Belle are the beautiful daughters of the husband and wife, who share the role of the Directors of Manufacturing Operations," the brand's website reads.

Some of their best sellers include anti-aging eye cream, retinol cream, charcoal face scrub, dark spot corrector, and multiple regimen kits. However, the latest product to take the internet by storm is the LilyAna Naturals Sea Moss Face Lift Cream.

Offered in 1-ounce or 1.7-ounce bottles, the formula is "enriched" with Bakuchiol, Sea Moss, Hyaluronic Acid, and Peptide Complex. Bakuchiol is a gentle and plant-based retinol alternative known for its ability to quicken skin turnover, enhance firmness, and even out skin tone. Meanwhile, Hyaluronic Acid and Sea Moss provide deep hydration for plumper-looking skin. Finally, the peptide complex helps boost skin elasticity for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

"Our face-lifting cream is made with natural and plant-derived ingredients, free from harsh chemicals, parabens, and sulfates. Experience visibly smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin with regular use," says the product's description.

If that sounds too good to be true, all you have to do is take a look at what shoppers are saying about the Sea Moss Face Lift Cream. It has over 13,000 reviews on Amazon, with an average rating of 4.3 stars.

"I have tried a lot of moisturizers, from drug store brands to high-end, expensive anti-aging moisturizers, and for me, LilyAna is the only brand that delivers results, doesn't irritate my skin, and doesn't totally empty my wallet. I'm so happy to have found this brand! The face cream glides on smoothly and absorbs within a few short minutes. It is not greasy at all and my makeup sits on top of it beautifully. No strong odors or anything else negative I can think of!" one reviewer shared.

"High-end product with a drug store price tag! Customer service is bar none. This will forever be my go-to skincare company," seconded another.

"I searched for an inexpensive alternative to the high-end creams I was using. This was it, and I'm 100% hooked! I actually like it better than my expensive stuff," agreed a third.

Now, if you're sold on the LilyAna Naturals Sea Moss Face Lift Cream and plan to get your hands on it, it's recommended that you apply it evenly across your face, neck, and décolletage twice a day after cleanser and serum.
