Ingredients
For the Pumpkin French Toast Batter
- 4 large eggs
- ¾ cup milk
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Bread
- 8 slices brioche or challah bread
For Cooking
- Butter, for greasing the skillet
Instructions
- Prepare the pumpkin batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
- Dip the bread slices: Take each slice of brioche or challah bread and dip it into the pumpkin egg mixture, making sure to coat both sides thoroughly without soaking too long to prevent sogginess.
- Cook the French toast: Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt a small amount of butter to grease the surface. Place the dipped bread slices onto the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the French toast from the skillet and serve warm topped with maple syrup or whipped cream, and optionally a sprinkle of powdered sugar for an extra touch.
Notes
- Use thick slices of brioche or challah bread for the best texture and soak absorption.
- Sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving for added sweetness and presentation.
- Maple syrup pairs perfectly with the warm spices and pumpkin flavor.
