Ingredients

  • 8-10 slices thick organic bread (You can use Brioche Bread, if preferred!)
  • 1 cup Coconut milk, unsweetened (You can use your fave plant-based milk!)
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree (Canned 100% pumpkin, NOT pie filling!)
  • 4 large organic eggs
  • 2 Tbsps pure maple syrup (See Notes!)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice (See Notes!)
  • 1 tablespoon vegan butter (I use Earth's Balance)

Instructions

  • Preheat your griddle or non-stick skillet on medium-high heat.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together coconut milk, pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and pumpkin spice until well combined. 
  • Add butter to griddle (or non-stick skillet) and dip bread slice into egg mixture (allowing a few seconds for it to absorb mixture). Then rotate and coat opposite side. 
  • Transfer to griddle (or non-stick skillet) and cook until golden brown on bottom, then lift, and flip french toast to opposite side and cook until golden brown. 
  • Repeat until all slices are made.
  • Serve warm with butter and maple syrup. Top with brown sugar bacon if desired.
  • Bon Appetite!

Notes

SWEETENER: If you choose to opt out of pure maple syrup, you can always substitute with Agave as well.
PUMPKIN SPICE: If you don’t have Pumpkin Spice readily available, you can use the following: 2 tsps ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of allspice. 
 
TO MAKE BROWN SUGAR CANDIED BACON:
Ingredients:
  • 4-5 slices of thick cut bacon or turkey bacon
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
Directions: 
  1. Place the bacon on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and brush the tops of the bacon with maple syrup and sprinkle on some brown sugar.
  2. Bake in a pre-heated 400 degree Fahrenheit oven for 10-15 minutes or so, flipping the bacon and brushing the opposite side with maple syrup and sprinkling the brown sugar as well. Bake for another 10-15 minutes or until it is completely caramelized and crispy.
