Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat a griddle or a skillet over medium heat.
  2. In a shallow dish, add eggs, milk, pumpkin purée, salt, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger and whisk until combined and smooth.
Cooking
  1. Use about a tablespoon of butter to grease the pan.
  2. Place bread slices into the egg mixture, then flip to coat both sides.
  3. Transfer slices to the pan and cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Flip bread and cook on the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  5. Transfer to a serving plate. Repeat with remaining slices, re-greasing the pan as necessary.
Serving
  1. Serve warm with a dust of powdered sugar, maple syrup, and whipped pumpkin butter.
  2. For presentation, stack the French toast on a plate, top with whipped pumpkin spice honey butter, and drizzle with maple syrup.

Notes

For a delightful twist, let the bread soak in the egg mixture for a minute longer. Feel free to customize with different breads or add chocolate chips for variation.
