Pumpkin Bread French Toast

Hiii it’s meee →

in my yoga pants here to tell you about another pumpkin recipe. . . 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.

Auntie win! My niece Ruby opened her mouth as wide as she could when she saw Pumpkin Bread French Toast coming her way. ????

Looking for MORE pumpkin? Don’t worry, I gotchu. Try these PERFECT FALL PUMPKIN MUFFINS or my favorite PUMPKIN ROLL DELIGHT! 

Enjoy!
