A little bit of prep work in the evening creates this Pumpkin Pie Overnight French Toast. Wake up to a delicious breakfast that bakes while you sleep!
Welcome to September! I had to laugh when I saw a something on Facebook that referenced how everything would turn into pumpkins come September 1st.
I know, as a blogger, we start thinking in pumpkin terms around mid-July so we’ll be ready but I always wonder if everyone else gets annoyed by pumpkin so early. So, I asked on Facebook what you guys would prefer to see today and Overnight Pumpkin Pie French Toast beat out the competition!
I originally made this pumpkin french toast to serve on holiday mornings. It quickly became a favorite though, so I will make it throughout the year for my family to enjoy on the weekends.
For holidays, especially, being able to put it together night before and then just cook in the morning makes a huge difference. We open presents on Christmas morning and it is amazing to smell this overnight french toast casserole cooking while we sit around the Christmas tree and enjoy family time together.
This baked french toast recipe tastes amazing with maple syrup! You can also top it with chopped walnuts after baking for an extra hint of fall. The combination is really delicious. The kids love it dusted with a little bit of powdered sugar instead of syrup.
