    pumpkin spice french toast bake

    I may have gotten a little carried away over the holidays when it came to buying canned pumpkin. The last two years there was a canned pumpkin shortage and I didn’t want to run out of it in the middle of the year when there are no cans of pumpkin in the grocery store.

    Now I find myself with a large stockpile of canned pumpkin, just in case. We make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins and Cookies regularly. But I wanted to change it up a little! Here is a fun new recipe I encourage you to try.

    • 1 French bread loaf torn into one inch pieces
    • 1 tsp cinnamon
    • 1 tsp each of ginger, allspice and nutmeg

    • In the morning, preheat the oven to 350 F. Remove the plastic wrap and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
    • During the last 20 minutes of baking, cover lightly with a piece of foil to prevent browning of the bread pieces.
