PUMPKIN FRENCH TOAST-
What is French Toast? French Toast is a dish made with bread soaked in a pumpkin puree, egg, and milk mixture, then fried until golden. Traditional French Toast is our favorite and kids love French Toast Sticks as well. This pumpkin version is a favorite fall breakfast during the cooler weather and around pumpkin season when the pumpkin flavor is everything.
