Pumpkin French Toast Sticks
Makes about 10 Slices
- Your choice of Texas Toast or French Brioche Bread
 - 3/4 Cup Half and Half
 - 3 Large Eggs
 - 1/3 Cup Pumpkin Puree
 - 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
 - 2 Tbsp Sugar
 - 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon
 - 1/8 Tsp Ginger Powder
 - 1/8 Tsp Nutmeg
 - Pinch of Cloves
 - Pinch of Salt
 
On a Separate Bowl Mix Together and set aside
- 2 Tbsp Brown
 - 1 Tbsp Sugar
 - 3/4 Tsp Cinnamon
 
Instructions
- Heat a Skillet to Med/ High Heat.
 - Whisk all ingredients from first list on a bowl til well combined.
 - Depending on the size of your bread you may be able to cut it in either 2 pieces or 3 pieces. I used Brioche and it was not big enough so I made two pretty cuts and cut off part of the sides to get those pretty french toast sticks.
 - Soak your bread generously but do not over soak.
 - Sprinkle your brown sugar/ sugar and cinnamon mix on each side of the soaked bread.
 - Cook on each side until a light brown. You want to toast all 4 sides. But first so your bread is sturdy enough make sure to toast the smaller ends of the bread.
 
Tips
- I always get the very best result on my French toast if I leave my bread at least a couple of hours to stale on my counter. This strategy helps when soaking your bread and the overall result of your French toast. I highly recommend it.
