Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices of thick bread (like brioche or challah)
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  2. Soak thick slices of bread in the pumpkin custard mixture for about 30-60 seconds per side, ensuring the bread is saturated but not falling apart.

  6. Serve immediately, drizzled with maple syrup, and optionally garnished with powdered sugar and chopped nuts.
