Hooray for pumpkin season!
I think I waited long enough to break out the pumpkin…don’t you think?
After all, it is officially fall, so I don’t feel quite so bad about shoving all of the apple and pumpkin recipes in your face.
And I’m sharing one of my favorite fall breakfasts with you today! Since I work way ahead on my editorial calendar and blogging content, I was already testing pumpkin recipes back in June. And this Pumpkin Spice French Toast was a winner right from the start! I almost shared it with you in the summer, but I’m not that crazy!
Even though the weather isn’t cooling off here yet (it’s been in the 90’s this week!), I knew it was time to whip out everything pumpkin, and then some.
And since I’ve made Pumpkin Spice Waffles, Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal, Pumpkin French Toast Cups, and Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats, it was time to add a classic french toast to the collection.
This Pumpkin Spice French Toast is the best breakfast to enjoy on those chilly fall mornings. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, this easy dish is bursting with flavor and perfect for the whole family to enjoy!
If you’ve never had Pumpkin Spice French Toast before, then you’re definitely missing out. It’s full of pumpkin-y flavor, so easy to make, and perfect for fall.
And the ingredients are simple. In fact, you probably have everything you need to make this dish in your kitchen. I like to use a thick bread for the toast, such as Texas toast or challah, as it holds up the egg mixture better than regular bread.
From start to finish, you can have this dreamy, crispy yet tender, Pumpkin Spice French Toast ready in about 20 minutes. Sounds pretty darn good, right?
Perfect to serve with a dusting of powdered sugar, some butter, and a good drizzle of maple syrup, you’ll be whipping up this breakfast all year long!
