Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter for skillet

  • ¼ cup pumpkin pie mix
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup whole milk

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a large skillet on medium high heat with butter.
  2. Mix eggs, pumpkin pie mix, vanilla extract and milk in a mixing bowl.
  3. Dip bread lightly in egg mixture and place on a warm buttered skillet. Cook 1-1/2 min on each side or until slightly toasted in appearance.
  4. Serve with powdered sugar and pecans and your favorite syrup.

Notes

  • It’s important not to over-batter the brioche before frying so that it doesn’t get soggy. Dip quickly, flip it, and move right to the fry pan.
  • If you have time, let the bread sit out and “stale” for a while before preparing this recipe. Lightly toasting the bread before battering will provide a similar result. 
  • Bring your maple syrup to room temperature before adding it. That way it won’t cool off your hot meal! 
  • Pumpkin French Toast is best eaten as soon as it comes out of the skillet. Store any leftover batter for 2-3 days in the refrigerator.
  • It’s best to set your stove at a low-to-medium temperature for this recipe, so you don’t burn the butter. Burnt butter may add a bitter taste to the dish, which isn’t the end of the world but also isn’t exactly complimentary.
  • Serve with warm maple syrup or our homemade buttermilk syrup.
