Ingredients

How to make it

  • PUMPKIN FRENCH TOAST WITH ALLSPICE BUTTER
  • (serves 4 – but can be doubled)
  • Allspice Butter
  • 1 stick of unsalted butter – room temperature
  • 1 TBL ground allspice
  • 2TBL pure maple syrup
  • Salt to taste
  • Place ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Scrape bowl & return to wax paper and roll into a log. Cover & refrigerate.
  • Pumpkin French Toast
  • ½ cup canned solid pumpkin
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • Cinnamon to taste
  • ½ tsp ground cloves
  • Freshly grated nutmeg to taste
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt to taste
  • 8 1” thick day old Challah bread or brioche loaf – or any kind of egg bread. Make sure it’s at least one day old.
  • 4 TBL butter cut into TBLs.
  • Vegetable oil
  • Whisk together pumpkin, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, milk, cream & salt in a large bowl. Place bread in a baking dish. You may need to use 2 baking dishes. Pour mixture over bread & turn to coat evenly. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a griddle or large fry pan.
  • Place 2 TBL of the cut butter and some vegetable oil in the griddle. Place as many slices of soaked bread in the griddle as will fit. Brown for about 3 minutes then turn & brown another 3 minutes. Continue until all the bread is gone. Serve with a pat of the allspice butter and warm maple syrup. The French toast comes out very creamy in the middle. Yummy.
  • Note: I made the batter and the allspice butter the night before and placed it in the fridge. About an hour before serving, I made the French toast and placed it in a 200˚ oven to keep warm. I served it with the allspice butter & warm maple syrup.
