Pumpkin French Toast

Pumpkin French Toast

Thick slices of bread dipped in a pumpkin spice mixture, cooked in butter, and drizzled with pure maple syrup. This is the perfect fall breakfast!

 Ingredients:

3 large eggs

3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

1 tablespoon light brown sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Butter, for griddle or pan

10 slices Texas toast or other thick-sliced bread

Maple syrup, butter, and powdered sugar, for serving

Instructions:

Preheat electric griddle and set aside.

In a 9x13 pan or a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, pumpkin, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.

Butter the preheated griddle.

Dip both sides of each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing the bread to soak up some of the mixture. Transfer slices of bread carefully to the griddle and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden brown. Repeat with all slices of read until coating mixture is gone.

Serve Pumpkin French toast warm with maple syrup, butter, and powdered sugar, if desired.
