Fall French Toast

I am not ashamed to admit that I get most of my information from Twitter these days. Natural disasters, racing news, new book info, and food news. So it’s not surprising that I also get recipes from Twitter. A while back Food Network chef Sunny Anderson tweeted pictures and ingredients for a French Toast dish she was making. I grabbed snapshots of her tweets and decided to try it.

I love French Toast and I love pumpkin so anytime I can mesh flavors it’s a hit with me. This was a thumbs up with the family and definitely something I’d make again. Even my nephew Caleb who is strictly a meat and potatoes guy said it was good.

Thanks Sunny!
