Baked Pumpkin French Toast: gluten free dairy free nut free corn free || Homemade Dutch Apple PieChristmas morning is a great time for a special breakfast. This pumpkin french toast is just what you need.

You can use gluten free pumpkin bread or even grain free nut butter pumpkin bread or grain free coconut flour pumpkin bread (bake it today so you are all set for Christmas morning) for a breakfast loaded with flavor. Or you can use whatever bread  you have on hand. Even stale bread will work!

Layers of bread, an eggy pumpkin custard and a bit of sweetness bake together for a perfect treat.

Pumpkin french toast is so easy to prepare. It takes about ten minutes to get it in the oven. Then you can snuggle with the kids or open stocking stuffers until breakfast.

This french toast is great on it’s own or you can serve it with maple syrup or honey drizzled on top. For a real treat you can even add a dollop of fresh whipped cream.Baked Pumpkin French Toast: gluten free dairy free nut free corn free || Homemade Dutch Apple Pie

My kids love pumpkin french toast. I love that they are eating eggs and pumpkin for breakfast! This is even great for small children since they can eat it with their hands and it’s soft (use the coconut flour bread for kids under one year of age).

No standing at the stove flipping bread. No messy syrup for little ones (if you don’t want it). Just an easy treat you can get in the oven quickly.

No guilt with this breakfast either. Just full bellies and lots of nourishment.

I made our pumpkin french toast dairy free using vanilla coconut milk. That really added to the flavor and allowed the whole family to enjoy it.

Use some of the pumpkin you stocked up on for Thanksgiving and make a fun Christmas breakfast or brunch. It will be a hit with the whole family. Baked Pumpkin French Toast: gluten free dairy free nut free corn free || Homemade Dutch Apple Pie
