Pumpkin French toast, or “Pumpkin Xi Duo Shi” in Chinese, is a delicious, sweet breakfast treat that combines the warm flavors of pumpkin with the crispy, golden texture of French toast. It’s perfect for a cozy morning when you want something a little special.
Ingredients:
- 200g pumpkin (peeled, cooked, and mashed)
- 4 slices of bread (preferably slightly stale)
- 2 eggs
- 100ml milk
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder (optional)
- Butter (for frying)
- Honey or maple syrup (for serving)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Pumpkin Mixture: Start by cooking the pumpkin until soft, then mash it into a smooth puree. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and cinnamon powder (if using). Add the mashed pumpkin and mix well until combined.
- Dip the Bread: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a small amount of butter. Dip each slice of bread into the pumpkin mixture, making sure both sides are well coated.
- Cook the French Toast: Place the coated bread slices into the frying pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Serve the pumpkin French toast hot, drizzled with honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness. You can also add fresh fruits or a dusting of powdered sugar for garnish.
Tips:
- Use Stale Bread: Slightly stale bread absorbs the pumpkin mixture better, resulting in a richer flavor.
- Pumpkin Puree: Make sure the pumpkin puree is smooth to avoid lumps in the mixture.
- Frying Temperature: Cook on medium heat to ensure the French toast is crispy on the outside while remaining soft on the inside.
