Vegan Baked Pumpkin French Toast

Thank god I have a huge chunk of pumpkin in my fridge, just waiting for me to make awesome pumpkin stuff

Ingredients:

• ~3c cubed day old bread [not soft sandwich bread]
• 2 flax “eggs” [2T ground flax meal + 6T warm water, whisked + let sit for 10min]
• 3T pumpkin puree
• 2T almond milk
• 1T sucanat [cane sugar or brown sugar]
• 1t cinnamon
• 1/2t vanilla
• 1/4t ginger
• pinch of allspice/nutmeg/cloves/salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350*
2. After flax “eggs” are ready, whisk in all other ingredients, in a large bowl.
3. Add bread cubes and stir to coat with the batter.
4. Spray individual bowls or pan [bread loaf size] with cooking spray. Also spray 1 side of foil that will cover the bowls/pan.
5. Add bread cubes to bowls/pan, letting excess batter drip off.
6. Cover with greased foil and bake for 25min.
7. Uncover and bake an additional 5min.
8. Top with bananas + nuts [optional] and broil for 1-3min, watching closely so it does not burn.
9. Scoop out, top + serve!

*If you don’t want to eat this with any sweet toppings, I would suggest doubling the amount of sugar you mix into the recipe. The French toast alone is not very sweet.
