Enjoy fall flavors any time of the year with this sweet and delicious pumpkin spice French toast!
Ingredients
- 1 La Brea Bakery Toasted Sunflower Honey Loaf, sliced into 8 slices
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, divided
- ¼ cup unsalted butter or nonstick spray
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- Maple syrup, to taste
Preparation
- In a medium shallow bowl or baking dish, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin spice, vanilla extract, and ½ cup heavy cream until fully combined.
- Preheat a large pan over medium-low heat.
- Trim about ¼ inch off each end of the La Brea Bakery Toasted Sunflower Honey Loaf. Slice the loaf into eight 1-inch thick slices.
- Dip each slice of bread into the pumpkin mixture, allowing each side to soak for at least 3 minutes.
- Once the pan is heated, add ½ teaspoon of butter (or enough to coat the pan) and place the dipped bread in the pan. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side over medium-low heat until golden brown.
- In a blender, add ½ cup heavy whipping cream and a pinch of cinnamon. Blend until the mixture becomes thick and fluffy, for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Serve the pumpkin spice French toast with a dollop of cinnamon whipped cream, a drizzle of maple syrup, and a sprinkle of powdered sugar, to taste.
