  • Dip the bread on both sides.
  • Remove excess batter from the bread slices with your fingers or a knife.
  • Lay the coated bread slices on your preheated griddle.
  • Give the toast about 5 minutes a side to cook completely.
  • You will want to lift the edge of your toast up and check before you flip it.

  • Stack the slabs of cooked pumpkin french toast on a plate.
  • Top them as desired with butter, maple syrup and powdered sugar and serve.

Serving Suggestions:

All the extra touches really do add a lot of yum to this meal. However if you eat this pumpkin pie french toast plain, it’s still good!

  • We love our  pumpkin pie french toast with a bit of butter and  a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
  • Add a Nice slide of pure Maple syrup right down the middle of the stack. Nothing compares to the flavor of pure Maple syrup. Do NOT buy a cheap sugar water syrup for this recipe. I’m watching you…
  • The first time I made this recipe I was out of whipped cream and used my homemade Greek yogurt as a topping.
  • My yogurt is a very mild, creamy and thick without the tangy flavor of store bought. Because I strain mine a really long time. It tasted Quite good on this Fall breakfast. My family is used to me doing weird things like this. They are very tolerant of me. 🙂
  • If you have extra whipped cream whip it up with a bit of pumpkin spice and maple syrup. Dollop a bit on top of your french toast for pure decadence. 
  • You could also replace the Maple syrup with Homemade Buttermilk Caramel Sauce to really take it over the top. Yummy!

To make the slices pretty on a plate I cut the cooked slices of toast diagonally and stack them with a bit of each slice exposed so all the yummy extras are on every slice. So good!
