Preparation
Step 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Step 2
Place the bread slices on a large platter or baking dish and drizzle with the pumpkin mixture. Use your hands to spread the mixture, coating all sides of the bread.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet to medium heat and brush with coconut oil. Add the bread slices and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to low as needed to cook thoroughly without burning. Serve with maple syrup and desired toppings.

Chef's notes
Pumpkin puree makes a great egg replacer in this recipe, creating a rich, custard-like mixture to coat the thick slices of bread.
This pumpkin French toast is totally vegan, but it's also enjoyable if you're not vegan.
