Lately, I have been a brunch-making fool. I keep trying to make more unique brunch recipes, so I eventually combined my sister’s favorite breakfast with my favorite spice.
Meet Pumpkin Spice French Toast. Toast. Pumpkin. Butter.
One of my favorite season goodies is pumpkin butter. I usually put it on my pancakes and waffles, but it inspired me to make a special autumn french toast. And, I mean real french toast with Texas toast, none of that other B.S.
To be extra basic, I served my pumpkin spice french toast with a pumpkin spice latte with my new Ninja coffee bar. If you would like to see coffee recipes, let me know in the comments!
You could call it Pumpkin Spice French Toast with a Pumpkin Spice French Roast!
