I love pumpkin, a lot. My new favorite thing to do is to head to Starbucks on Fridays, while my son as at school, to work in peace and treat myself to a PSL.

Those Pumpkin Spice Latte’s get me every time.

Pumpkin lattes are great (like this iced pumpkin spice latte), but real pumpkin-based desserts are even better. Stacey uses many of my favorite ingredients in this pumpkin french toast inspired recipe:

• bread x12 (I love me some bread. I’m a carb queen! What can I say, bread makes me happy).
• pumpkin puree (you want to make sure it’s 100% pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling).
• maple syrup (pure maple syrup guys, not the fake stuff).
• pecans
• cream cheese
• cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla

Basically, this is the breakfast of my dreams.

I know this recipe is categorized as breakfast, but I’m pretty sure this would make one awesome dessert. Or lunch…or dinner…
