Hiii it’s meee →
in my yoga pants here to tell you about another pumpkin recipe. . . Pumpkin Bread French Toast, because it is October and I deserve it. So let’s get back to pumpkin, once you have a plate of this enticing syrup soaked pumpkin bread french toast, it’s hard to focus on anything else.
This bread is soft, juicy and packs a punch with pumpkin cozy Fall flavors. I am tempted to use the word “dense”, but I won’t because it’s not a “too much flour” dense. I took an already delicious pumpkin recipe (thank you Mom) and reduced the flour and sugar then added more pumpkin puree. I wanted to try to make a slightly healthier version and decided to reduce the sweetness a bit. That way when syrup is added it’s the perfect balance. This French toast was so good it felt like a hug.
