    This right here.

    Ridiculously delicious.

    I’m not gonna lie…it’s a little bit of a production to get it all together. (It takes 3 bowls and a 9×13.) But it’s so totally worth it.

    So I was periscoping this and forgot to take pictures, but here’s how it works…

    1. Bread layer.
    2. 1/2 of the egg-pumpkin mixture on the bread.
    3. Spread-dollop the cream cheese on top.
    4. Bread layer.
    5. 1/2 of the egg-pumpkin mixture on the top.
    6. Finally, sprinkle the topping.

    Here’s what it looks like right out of the oven.

    So ridiculously delicious. I think I’m putting this on the menu for Christmas morning. It’s never too early to decide these things. 🙂

    Pumpkin Pie Stuffed French Toast

    Simple and delightful! Perfect for fall brunch!
    Prep Time20 minutes minutes
    Cook Time45 minutes minutes
    Servings - 6 servings

    Ingredients 

    • 1 lb. French bread loaf, cut into bite size pieces
    • 1 1/2 cups milk
    • 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
    • 6 eggs
    • 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
    • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
    • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, divided
    • 1/4 cup flour
    • 1/4 cup brown sugar
    • 3 Tbsp powdered sugar
    • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
    • 6 Tbsp cold butter, cut into cubes
    • Fresh fruit, as side dish

    Instructions

    • Lightly spray a 9x13-inch glass baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Add half of the bread pieces to make a single layer in the base of the dish.
    • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, pumpkin puree, eggs, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla. Pour half of this mixture over the bread in the dish.
    • In a small mixing bowl, cream together the cream cheese, powdered sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon.
    • Spread or dollop the cream cheese over the bottom layer of bread and egg mixture.
    • Add the remaining bread pieces over the cream cheese layer and pour the remaining egg mixture evenly over the second layer of bread.
    • In another small bowl, add the flour, brown sugar, powdered sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon and chopped pecans. Combine and then add the cold butter pieces and cut in with a pastry blender or 2 knives. Sprinkle the topping over the top of the casserole. Chill in the fridge for at least an hour, or overnight.
    • Bake at 350 F for 40 to 45 minutes, or until topping is golden brown and eggs have cooked through.
    • Serve Pumpkin Pie Stuffed French Toast with fresh fruit.

      Do you think sourdough bread would work for this recipe?

      This sounds a lot like bread pudding. Has anyone tried this dish served warm? It sounds like it would taste good served warm.
