Bring on the Fall Vibes

Slathering thick slices of bread with a rich pumpkin batter and then baking them until they’re crisp on the outside but soft and fluffy on the inside, pumpkin French toast is the perfect fall breakfast. 

Nutmeg in this batter complements the natural sweetness of the bread, while the addition of pumpkin puree gives your toast a lovely orange hue and a creamy texture. The warm fall spices and the earthiness of the pumpkin just work so well together.

Of course the brown sugar topping takes it to the next level. It adds that bit of crunch and a pop of sweet goodness.

Serve it with a drizzle of maple syrup or a sprinkle of powdered sugar, and you’ve got yourself a treat. Add a bit of whipped cream if you really want to treat yourself right!

Whether you’re welcoming autumn with open arms or looking for a way to use that extra can of pumpkin puree, pumpkin French toast is sure to taste scrumptious! 

Trust me; this dish will have you feeling all of the Fall vibes!

Another Take on Pumpkin French Toast

If you would rather work pumpkin into a more classic french toast, try making it with pumpkin bread! Simply slice the pumpkin bread into thick pieces, dip in a beaten egg and milk mixture, and cook in a frying pan until golden brown. 

For an extra touch of fall flavor, add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the egg mixture. Serve with maple syrup and fresh fruit for a delicious weekend breakfast.

Pumpkin French toast is sure to become a new favorite in any way you enjoy it!
