Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups Pumpkin puree
- 0.75 cups Milk (whole milk or plant-based milk)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 1 teaspoons Maple syrup (optional, for mild sweetness)
- 4 slices Whole wheat bread (or toddler-friendly bread)
- 1 teaspoons Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, egg, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and maple syrup (if using) until smooth and well combined.
Prepare your bread slices by cutting them into smaller, toddler-friendly pieces if desired.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Dip a slice of bread into the pumpkin mixture, making sure to coat both sides evenly but not saturate the bread to the point of falling apart.
Place the coated bread slice onto the preheated skillet. Repeat with remaining slices, cooking in batches if necessary.
Cook each slice for about 2-3 minutes on one side or until golden brown, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and transfer it to a plate. Let it cool slightly to ensure it's safe for toddlers to eat.
Serve as-is or with toddler-friendly toppings like a dollop of yogurt, fresh fruit, or a light drizzle of additional maple syrup (if age-appropriate).
