Instructions
Creating Pumpkin French Toast is both easy and enjoyable. Follow these simple steps for perfect results:
1. Whisk Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
2. Prepare Bread: Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease with butter.
3. Dip Bread: Dip each slice of bread into the pumpkin mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Allow excess batter to drip off.
4. Cook Toast: Place the coated bread on the preheated skillet. Cook for about 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
5. Repeat: Continue with the remaining slices, adding more butter as needed to the skillet.
6. Serve Warm: Remove cooked toast from heat and keep warm while cooking the remaining bread.
7. Add Toppings: Serve the Pumpkin French Toast with maple syrup, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
