Pumpkin Pie French Toast Casserole

Pumpkin Pie French Toast Casserole

When I serve my pumpkin pie french toast casserole, I warn family and friends that there's a little bit of the devil in me.

Shockingly, they don't argue the point! We all have a good laugh and then sit down to enjoy this decadent treat.

My overnight pumpkin pie french toast casserole is the type of dish we serve over Thanksgiving week when family comes to visit.

Pumpkin pie filling and pumpkin pie spice are the secret ingredients that make this dish so satisfying.

I hope you will try this easy recipe that I believe might become a family favorite for you too!

How to Enjoy Pumpkin Pie French Toast Casserole

Easily and with abandon!

I really mean you can consider topping your casserole with whipped cream or a drizzle of creme anglaise that's nice to have on hand for breakfast treats and dessert.

Here's a recipe for creme anglaise from epicurious. It's such an easy and versatile recipe that also impresses!

This recipe is full of dairy protein and eggs, but if you'd like to add a breakfast meat to your meal, consider:

  • Sliced ham
  • Pork or chicken sausage links or patties
  • Crispy center cut bacon
