The best Pumpkin French Toast recipe is the perfect fall breakfast, made with thick slices of bread soaked in a creamy pumpkin spice batter and cooked until golden and crisp.
Preheat griddle or skillet over medium heat and grease well with butter.
Mix all ingredients (except the bread) together in a shallow dish or blender and whisk until smooth. Dip bread into the batter, coating both sides. Place bread onto hot griddle or skillet and cook for a few minutes, until browned on the bottom. Flip and cook on the other side.
4 large eggs, 1/2 cup canned pumpkin, 3/4 cup milk, 3 Tablespoons light brown sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, dash of salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 8 thick slices bread
Bread: I like to use Sara Lee bread, Texas toast or kick it up a notch with challah or brioche bread. You could also use french bread.Make ahead Instructions: Pumpkin french toast tastes bests made fresh but if you want to save time, you can make the batter a few hours ahead of time. Store it, covered, in the refrigerator until ready to use.Freezing Instructions: Once cooled, store in a freezer safe bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw, then rewarm in toaster or microwave.
