Ingredients

Pumpkin French Toast Casserole

  • 1 (16 ounce loaf) French bread cut into 1-2 inch cubes
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 1 (15 ounce can) pumpkin puree
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch ground cloves

Crumble

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup salted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch ground cloves

To Serve

  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Lightly grease the inside of a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray or butter.
  • Cut the French bread into 1- to 2-inch cubes and place them in the slow cooker.
  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups half and half, 1 (15 ounce can) pumpkin puree, 5 large eggs, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1 pinch salt,and a 1 pinch ground cloves, until well combined.
  • Pour the pumpkin mixture evenly over the bread cubes in the slow cooker, pressing down lightly to ensure the bread soaks up the liquid.
  • In a small mixing bowl, use a fork or pastry cutter to mix together 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup salted butter, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1 pinch ground cloves until the mixture is crumbly.
  • Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the soaked bread.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until the casserole is set and cooked through.
  • Serve hot, plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or drizzled with maple syrup.

Notes

You can safely leave your slow cooker on the “warm” setting for up to 2 hours once your casserole is finished cooking.
