Ingredients
  

4 slices of thick bread (brioche or challah recommended)

2 large eggs

1/2 cup milk (any type you prefer)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1/4 cup pure pumpkin puree

2 tablespoons brown sugar (optional, to taste)

Butter or cooking oil for frying

Maple syrup, for serving

Whipped cream or powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and pure pumpkin puree until smooth. Add in the brown sugar (if desired), ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well-combined and the batter is silky.

    Dip the Bread: Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat, adding a tablespoon of butter or a drizzle of oil. While it heats up, take each slice of bread and dip it into the pumpkin spice batter, ensuring both sides are coated evenly. Allow any excess batter to drip off to prevent sogginess.

      Cook the French Toast: Once the skillet is hot, place the coated bread slices onto the skillet. Cook each slice for 2-4 minutes on each side, or until they achieve a beautiful golden-brown color and a slightly crispy texture. If making multiple batches, add more butter or oil as needed to keep the skillet greased.

        Serve: Carefully transfer the warm French toast to a serving plate. Drizzle generously with rich maple syrup, and if you like, top with a dollop of whipped cream or a delicate sprinkle of powdered sugar for that extra festive flair.

          Enjoy: Take a moment to appreciate the enchanting aromas and flavors of pumpkin spice, and enjoy a cozy and delightful breakfast experience!
