Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the batter
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree not pie filling
  • 1 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 3 pieces eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon sugar optional, depending on sweetness preference
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 pinch salt
For frying
  • 4 slices thick bread (brioche or Texas toast)
  • Butter or oil for frying

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the pumpkin batter, ensuring both sides are well coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet or griddle, heat the butter or oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
  2. Place the coated bread slices on the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, whipped cream, or toasted pecans!

Notes

Choose thicker slices of bread for best results. Add a pinch of cloves or ginger for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freeze separated with parchment paper.
