Pumpkin Crusted French Toast
As part of being with the monthly year-round International Delight Program, we were asked to make something this Fall using the Pumpkin Pie Spice Creamer. No problem! Besides just having it in your coffee, the perks of this flavor should be used in other ways!
I’ve made French Toast using coffee cream before, in fact, it’s the BEST way. But this time, not only did I add the Pumpkin Pie Spice Creamer, but I also added pumpkin puree. Why not?
It was SUPER easy, and SUPER DUPER DELICIOUS just the way I like it.
I started with a loaf of French bread, slicing into thick slices.
It’s the only way really, don’t you agree? Thick French Toast is always better!

I mixed one egg per person when creating my “batter”. Since there are 3 of us and one is a growing teenager, I used 4 eggs. I mixed the eggs with about a 1/2 cup of the creamer and 1 cup of pumpkin puree. I whisked it all together with a couple of teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice before dipping each piece of bread.
I like to let it soak a little bit……not too much, or you’ll get soggy bread and nobody has time for that.
Once you get both sides coated with the egg, pumpkin & creamer mixture, place it on a hot greased griddle.
Is your mouth watering yet?
Flip it when it’s brown and brown up the other side.
Get your plates ready ahead of time, because you’ll want to eat this right away!
My family devoured these!
I love that it was such a simple, yet tasty breakfast! Great for weekends, but quick enough for school mornings.
Pumpkin Crusted French Toast
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 pumpkin spice creamer
- 1 cup pumpkin puree

Instructions

- Pour into a shallow dish such as a baking dish. I like using a 9 x 9 inch.

Notes
- Any creamer or half and half will work.
