Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 12-by-8-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, condensed milk, regular milk, cinnamon, vanilla, eggs and 1 tablespoon of the melted butter and whisk until combined. Grab a slice of bread and submerge it in the pumpkin custard. Soak with enough custard to cover both sides of the bread, then transfer it to the prepared baking pan. Repeat the process until the bottom of the pan is covered.
- In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, mix the cream cheese and powdered sugar until combined and the cream cheese is clump free; the mixture should be soft and spreadable.
- Spread enough of the cream cheese mixture on top of the bread in the pan to cover all the slices. Soak the remaining bread slices in the remaining custard. Layer them on top of the cream cheese mixture. Combine the pecans, brown sugar and remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt. Top the casserole with the pecan mixture.
- Bake until the top is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square or 2-quart shallow baking dish; set aside. Toast bread on a baking sheet in oven, turning occasionally, until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pie spice, vanilla, and salt. Add toasted bread; cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto surface. Place a plate small enough to fit inside bowl on top of plastic; weight with a large canned good. Let soak until bread is saturated, about 25 minutes.
- Transfer mixture to prepared dish, spreading evenly. Bake on a baking sheet until firm and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature, dusted with confectioners' sugar and topped with whipped cream, if desired.
PUMPKIN SPICE FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE
This autumn-inspired casserole is both custardy and crunchy and perfect for brunch--or even dessert. We use pumpkin pie puree, which comes pre-sweetened and spiced, lending an extra touch of warmth. Since the unbaked casserole needs to rest overnight, this is an ideal make-ahead company-worthy dish.

Steps:
- For the casserole: Generously grease a 3-quart casserole dish with the butter. Shingle the bread slices, in rows, over the bottom of the dish so that they are overlapping slightly (like rows of slanted books).
- Whisk the eggs, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla and salt in large bowl until smooth and well combined. Add the milk and cream to the bowl and whisk until well combined. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread slices, making sure that all slices are well coated. Cover the casserole dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to overnight.
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- For the brown sugar crumble: Whisk together the brown sugar, flour and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and work it into the dry ingredients with your fingers (or a pastry cutter) until the mixture is crumbly with pea-sized bits of butter. Mix in the pecans.
- To assemble: Give the bread slices in the casserole dish a gentle push into the custard, dollop the pumpkin pie puree over the bread slices and sprinkle the crumble evenly over the top.
- Bake the casserole until the top is puffed and browned and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes (it will still be a little jiggly when the casserole dish is tapped but it will continue to cook a bit out of the oven). Check the casserole about halfway through the baking time and tent it with foil if the topping is browning too quickly. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

PUMPKIN FRENCH TOAST (VEGAN)
A delicious, healthy, easy, and custardy vegan French toast from Isa Chandra Moskowitz's new cookbook, "Vegan Brunch". Recipe is very low effort but requires 30 minutes soaking time. TIP: These french toast recipes call for stale bread because it's going to be soaking up custard, but you still want the bread to hold its shape. Fresh bread will get mushy and, worst case scenario, fall apart. A 3 day old loaf should be just fine and 5 days old might be too late (make it into breadcrumbs instead.) If you have only a fresh baguette, toast slices at 300°F oven for about 10 minutes, until they are hardened a bit but not toasted.

Steps:
- Mix together all ingredients except for the bread. Spread out baguette slices on a rimmed baking pan in a single layer. Pour on pumpkin mixture and flip to coat. Let sit for 20 minutes, then flip over and soak for 10 minutes more.
- Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray with cooking oil, or drizzle a little into the pan, and cook about half of the soaked breads at a time for 5 to 7 minutes on one side and about 3 minutes on the other. They should be golden to medium brown and flecked with darker spots. Keep warm on a plate covered with tin foil while you cook the second batch.
- If not serving immediately, cover and place in a 200°F oven for up to an hour. Serve with maple syrup and margarine, of course.

TODDLER PUMPKIN PIE FRENCH TOAST
I always look for ways to get my 22-month old toddler to eat more veggies than she already does. Granted, she's a truly adventurous eater now, after months of hiding veggies in her foods! Give this one a try. It's a great way to get some extra fiber, vitamins and minerals in your toddler's diet. And, s/he won't even know it's good for you. :D NOTE: I always use Florida Crystals Organic sugars for my toddler because it's supposedly NOT supposed to promote tooth decay. I get these sugars (dehydrated cane sugar, brown sugar and even powdered sugar) in the regular supermarket. This recipe is quick, easy and I'm always guaranteed that my daughtter will eat a good breakfast (meaning the whole thing) when I serve her this. She loves it.

BAKED PUMPKIN PIE FRENCH TOAST
We loved this simple method of making French toast. Baking it in the oven does slightly alter the texture than making it in the skillet and crisps the outside of the bread. The flavor of the pumpkin is perfect - slightly sweet with just the right amount of spice. Super easy to prepare, this French toast would be a delicious...
