Thought this Vegan Pumpkin French Toast deserved a picture on it’s own in the feed too 😌 literally the perfect fall breakfast, I’m obsessed! You can easily make it with an egg + regular cream cheese if you aren’t vegan.
First, make a flax egg (use a regular egg if not vegan and skip this step). Take 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 2.5 tbsp water and whisk it together in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes to let it thicken and get an egg-like texture. Slice a loaf of bread into 5 thick slices. Add about 1-1 1/2 tbsp vegan cream cheese on one side of each slice then fold the slice in half. Combine 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, 2 tbsp organic pumpkin puree, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, 1/2 tsp vanilla, and 2-3 tsp maple syrup in a shallow bowl big enough for your bread to fit. Mix in the flaxseed egg (or regular egg if not vegan) and mix all the ingredients together well. Soak each piece of the folded bread on both sides and add to a pan with coconut oil. Cook over medium heat for 3-4 mins on each side. Top with a little maple syrup and pumpkin spice.
