Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 10 slices Texas toast or 1 inch slices of brioche or challah
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter for frying
  • Maple Pumpkin Butter:
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter softened
  • 2 Tbsp pumpkin puree
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • To make French Toast: In a shallow baking dish, whisk eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt. Place bread slices into pumpkin mixture and let soak about 60 seconds per side.
  • In a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat or griddle, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Cook 2 slices bread at a time until golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat cooking in batches, keep warm. (If using a griddle, you may be able to cook all at one time. Adjust the amount of butter, if needed.)
  • To make the Maple Pumpkin Butter: In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to whip softened butter with pumpkin, maple syrup, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until light and fluffy. (Easily doubles for a larger batch)
  • Serve French toast immediately with pumpkin butter, sprinkled with powdered sugar, and drizzled with maple syrup.
