Ingredients
- eggs
- milk
- canned pumpkin
- vanilla extract
- cinnamon
- pumpkin pie spice
- white whole wheat bread (or favorite sliced bread)
Instructions
In a large shallow dish, whisk together 1-2 large eggs (use two for large eggs, or 1 for extra large eggs), ⅓ cup milk ( I used low-fat milk), 2 tablespoons canned pumpkin, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.

Preheat a nonstick skillet to medium heat, and coat with cooking spray. Dip each side of a slice of white whole wheat bread (or your favorite bread) in the pumpkin-egg mixture, and transfer to preheated skillet. Cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat with 3 more slices of bread. Top with maple syrup, pumpkin butter, or your favorite french toast toppers.

Pro Tips
- If you want yours a little sweeter, add a tablespoon of brown sugar or maple syrup the the egg mixture before dipping bread.
- For a more custard-like texture, use 2 eggs instead of one.
- Add more flavor and texture by using cinnamon raisin bread.
FAQs
My batter is really thick. What should I do?
If you find your egg mixture is too thick, you can add an extra egg, or thin it out with a couple of tablespoons more of milk until it is the desired consistency.
Can I freeze this pumpkin french toast?
Yes! Let each slice of french toast cool completely. Place in a single layer on a cooling rack set into a baking sheet. Place in freezer until frozen solid, and transfer to a freezer bag or freezer-friendly storage container. Reheat in the microwave, or reheat a big batch in the oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes, or until heated through.
How long does this french toast last?
When frozen, it can last up to one month. If cooked and stored in the refrigerator, it can last up to three to four days.

Money-Saving Tips for this Pumpkin French Toast
Buy in bulk. If you have the budget and space, buy items you use frequently in bulk sizes, like spices, vanilla, or eggs. These tend to be more cost-effective than smaller pack sizes.
Use store brand. Shop store brands for items like spices, vanilla, milk and pumpkin. Store brands are often less expensive without sacrificing flavor or quality.
