Pumpkin Pie Spice French Toast Bake

Pumpkin Pie Spice French Toast Bake

Dive into the Pumpkin Pie Spice French Toast Bake – a fall frenzy for breakfast or brunch. Warning: I devoured half in one go (solo!) – total chungus move. It's that damn good.

It's got sweet, custardy magic without the guilt thanks to velvety pumpkin puree. This no-sweat crowd pleaser, perfect for lazy legends and the brunchers alike. This is a great recipe if you’re making breakfast for a crowd because there's no babysitting involved. Simply prep the night before and pop in the oven the next morning when you're ready to indulge.  🎃🍞🔥

Ingredients

  • 12 brioche dinner rolls
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease your baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  3. Place the whole brioche dinner rolls in the prepared baking dish in a single layer.
  4. Using a paring knife or fork randomly poke several holes into each roll, this will help the custard absorb through the brioche evenly.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the half and half, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and pumpkin pie spice until well combined.
  6. Slowly pour the pumpkin custard mixture over the brioche dinner rolls, ensuring all the rolls are evenly coated.
  7. Gently press down on the rolls with a fork or spatula to help them absorb the custard mixture. Allow the mixture to soak for about 15-20 minutes, giving the bread time to absorb the flavors. (I placed a plate on top of the soaking buns to help submerge them in the custard.)
  8. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the French toast bake is set and the top is golden brown.
  9. Serve the bake alongside maple syrup and your favorite nuts or fruits.

Inspired by the Georgian dish lobio, these beans deliver bold flavors with the warmth of our Kharcho spice blend and the crunch of walnuts. While they’re a perfect filling for khachapuri, they're equally delicious served on their own with flatbread for a hearty, vegan meal. Mashed to a chunky texture, the beans are infused with the rich flavors of paprika, garlic, and Kharcho, creating a comforting and flavorful dish that's easy to prepare and full of authentic Georgian taste.
