To begin, beat together the eggs and milk in a shallow dish. When they are smooth, add in the pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Whisk until fully combined.
Heat your griddle or skillet over medium heat and melt a little butter onto the surface. (You can also use non-stick cooking spray if you prefer - but butter is my choice.)
Dip a slice of bread into the mixture, turning to cover both sides. Place it on the griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Repeat this process with all of the bread slices.
Top with butter and real maple syrup.
Enjoy!
Notes
This recipe generally serves two - three people (5-6 slices total). Double the recipe to make it for a whole family.It is also a great recipe to make when you have a partial can of pumpkin left over from your holiday baking! Don't let that precious pumpkin go to waste.
