Pumpkin Pie Hawaiian French Toast is a delightful breakfast or brunch treat, especially during the fall season. Here’s how to make it following your recipe:
Ingredients:
- 6 pieces of Sweet Hawaiian bread
- 3/4 cup half and half
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (for cooking)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- Maple syrup (for drizzling)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Custard:
- In a bowl, whisk together the half and half, eggs, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Heat a Large Pan:
- Heat a large pan or skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter and let it melt. Make sure the heat is not too high to avoid burning the butter.
- Dip and Cook:
- Quickly dip each piece of Sweet Hawaiian bread into the pumpkin pie custard mixture, making sure both sides are coated but not soaked.
- Place the dipped bread slices in the heated pan. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, or until both sides are golden brown and crispy. Cooking time may vary, so keep an eye on them.
- Serve:
- Once the French toast is cooked to your desired level of crispiness and has a beautiful golden color, remove it from the pan.
- Dress It Up:
- Sprinkle the cooked French toast with powdered sugar for a touch of sweetness.
- Drizzle with maple syrup to your liking.
- Enjoy:
- Serve your Pumpkin Pie Hawaiian French Toast hot and enjoy the warm, comforting flavors of pumpkin pie spice and sweet Hawaiian bread.
This recipe is perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch on a chilly morning. The combination of the pumpkin spice and Hawaiian bread adds a unique and delicious twist to classic French toast. Enjoy! 🎃🧡🍞
