Pumpkin French Toast Casserole<\/p>\nPumpkin French Toast Casserole<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Unsalted butter, for greasing baking dish<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 cups canned pumpkin pur\u00e9e<\/p>\n
2 cups whole milk<\/p>\n
5 large eggs<\/p>\n
1\/4 cup sugar<\/p>\n
2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice<\/p>\n
1 T. \u00a0vanilla extract<\/p>\n
12 cups 1-inch bread cubes<\/p>\n
Maple syrup, for serving<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F. Grease a 9\u00d713-inch baking pan with butter.\u00a0 In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla extract. Add the cubed bread to the bowl and stir until it is well coated then pour the bread mixture and any liquids into the prepared baking pan. Cover the pan with foil and bake the French toast for 30 minutes until the egg mixture is almost fully set then remove the foil and continue baking the French toast for 20 to 25 minutes until the bread is deep golden brown. Remove the French toast from the oven, spoon it onto serving plates and top it with maple syrup.\u00a0 When it comes to toppings, a dusting of powdered sugar, fresh pomegranate arils and a drizzle of warm maple syrup is my trio of choice. I love the pairing of pumpkin and pomegranate, as the juicy seeds add a pop of color and flavor to each autumnal bite. Any variation of bread will work in this recipe, however, I find that a crusty French baguette or loaf of sourdough yield the best texture and soak up the most custard. (You could even try using croissants, though!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
