Cozy Pumpkin Pie Spice French Toast
Pumpkin Pie Spice French Toast is the best fall breakfast recipe. The thick cut bread is drenched in a yummy pumpkin spice batter, then pan‑fried until golden and crispy.
Ingredients
- 4 Eggs
- ⅔ cup Pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 Tablespoons White sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Pumpkin spice
- ½ cup Whole milk
- 10 slices Bread
- Butter, as needed
Instructions
- In a shallow dish or bowl, whisk together the eggs and pumpkin puree until combined.
- Add in the vanilla extract, followed by the sugar and pumpkin spice. Whisk well before adding the milk.
- Melt 1-2 Tablespoons of butter in a frying pan set over medium heat (or medium-low heat if your stove runs hotter).
- Once the butter is hot and melted, dip each slice of bread individually into the pumpkin egg mixture, coating both sides of the bread. Allow the excess egg mixture to drip off of the bread, back into the container, before placing in the hot frying pan.
- Cook for 3-5 minutes on the first side until well browned, then flip and cook until browned on the second side. (The second side will take less time, so check the cooking progress by using your spatula to lift up the corner and sneak a peek.)
- Remove the bread slice to a clean plate and repeat with all bread slices, adding an additional 1/2 Tablespoon of butter to the pan between each slice.
Christina's Notes
- Thick Bread: 1-inch slices of bread is key for crispy on the outside and custardy on the inside French toast.
- Dip, Don't Soak: Dip the bread just long enough for it to absorb the custard.
- Hot Pan: Ensure your skillet or griddle is hot before adding the toast for even browning.
- Butter or Oil: Use a little grease for flavor and to prevent sticking. Refresh it between batches.
