This Pumpkin French Toast is so incredibly moist on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. Each bite is loaded with pumpkin pie spice, filling you up with the flavors of fall! Enjoying a pumpkin-flavored breakfast, similar to my Pumpkin Waffles and Pumpkin Scones, is really the best way to start the day during the season. It really couldn’t be easier to transform a classic french toast recipe into a pumpkin-infused fall treat. All you have to do is mix pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice into a dairy free and eggless batter. The secret ingredient in this sweet batter will guarantee every slice is super moist on the inside and crispy and warming on the outside.
Is french toast vegan?
Most french toast recipes are made with eggs to coat the bread and give it that classic creamy inside and crispy outside. Instead, the eggless french toast batter combines pumpkin puree, warming spices, and the secret ingredient: cornstarch! You won’t miss the eggs at all as you bite into the super moist and decadent vegan french toast.
How to make it
Pumpkin spice french toast is probably even easier to make than the classic recipe.
What kind of bread is best for french toast?
My favorite bread to use for french toast is thick slices of Texas toast, french bread, ciabatta, or sourdough. No matter the kind of bread you use, make sure it’s at least 1 day old. If the bread is too fresh or soft, it’s more likely to become soggy when coated in the batter.

Almond, oat, cashew, or soy milk are all great choices.Serving – Top your slices with fall-themed toppings, like chopped pecans, stewed apples, or maple syrup. The classics, like vegan butter, powdered sugar and vegan whipped cream, are good too! Don’t forget a batch of these Pumpkin Pancakes or Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls on the side.Storing – French toast is best served right after cooking, but it can be kept in the refrigerator, wrapped well, for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster until warm and crisp.
