Ingredients

– 4 large eggs
– 1 cup milk

Instructions
1-Getting ready for this Pumpkin Spice French Toast is as fun as eating it, especially on a crisp fall morning. Start by pulling together all your ingredients to make the process smooth and enjoyable. This recipe is straightforward, taking just about 20 minutes from start to finish, so itβs great for beginners or busy families.
2-First, preheat a skillet or griddle to medium heat. This step helps ensure even cooking and a golden-brown finish on your toast. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, brown sugar, and pumpkin puree until itβs all blended smoothly.
3-Next, melt one tablespoon of butter on the skillet to coat the pan nicely. Dip each slice of bread into the pumpkin mixture, making sure to coat all sides evenly but not letting it soak too long to avoid sogginess. Place the coated bread on the hot skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until itβs golden brown.
4-Keep the cooked pieces warm while you continue with the rest of the bread, adding more butter as needed. Once done, serve it warm with toppings like syrup, powdered sugar, or cinnamon-sugar. For a fun twist, slice the cooked toast into sticks for kids to dip, turning breakfast into a playful activity.
