Instructions
1
|
In a shallow dish or bowl, whisk together the eggs and pumpkin puree until combined.
2
|
Add in the vanilla extract, followed by the sugar and pumpkin spice. Whisk well before adding the milk.
3
|
Melt 1-2 Tablespoons of butter in a frying pan set over medium heat (or medium-low heat if your stove runs hotter).
4
|
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.
5
|
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.)
6
|
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.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Strain Your Pumpkin Puree 🧡Press canned pumpkin puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove excess moisture, preventing soggy French toast and ensuring a silky custard mixture that adheres perfectly to the bread.
- Bloom Your Spices in Butter 🌟Toast the pumpkin spice in melted butter for 30 seconds before mixing into the custard to intensify and round out the flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Brioche or Challah for Optimal Texture 🍞Use day-old brioche or challah bread cut 3/4-inch thick—their high egg and butter content absorb the custard without becoming mushy, creating a creamy interior with a golden exterior.
- Chill the Custard Mixture ❄️Refrigerate your egg and pumpkin custard for at least 15 minutes before dipping to allow the flavors to meld and help the bread absorb moisture more evenly for consistent texture.
- Finish with Clarified Butter 🧈Cook in clarified butter or ghee instead of whole butter to achieve a superior golden-brown crust without burning, as the milk solids that cause browning are removed.
