PUMPKIN BREAD FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium heat, place a small amount of butter or oil. Once butter is completely melted or oil is hot, working in batches, dunk Pumpkin Bread in French Toast Egg Custard, completely submerging the bread. Place bread a few pieces at a time in the skillet and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 5 minutes. With a spatula, flip the bread and cook the other side. The bread is done when both sides are browned and the egg custard is cooked completely through. Repeat until all bread is cooked, adding more butter to skillet as needed.
• Put toast on a plate. Spread Sweet Cream Cheese on the top side of bread. Stack 2 pieces with cream cheese on top of each other, making sure to balance, making 6 servings. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the toast and serving plates or platter. Drizzle Allspice Dulce De Leche over the top of the toast. Top each stack with a candy pumpkin.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon). In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the wet ingredients (eggs, pumpkin, oil and water). Turn mixer on low and mix wet ingredients. While mixer is on, slowly add dry ingredients until incorporated. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Turn off mixer.
• Grease a half sheet pan (18-x-13 inches) and top with greased side extenders.
• Pour in the pumpkin batter, making sure to spread evenly across pan. Lift the pan up and down, tapping it on the counter to remove air pockets and level the mixture.
• Bake for about 20 minutes with a low fan (convection). The bread is finished when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, or the bread springs back when lightly pressed. Cool bread.
• Remove sheet pan side extenders. Cut bread into 4-inch squares with a large knife or square cookie cutter.
• Combine eggs, cream, vanilla and cinnamon in a medium bowl and mix with a whisk. Refrigerate if not using right away.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, mix cream cheese and butter on low speed. While still on low speed, add powdered sugar until completely combined. Add vanilla extract.
• Turn off mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl, making sure all ingredients are in the center of the bowl. Turn on mixer again and mix until all ingredients are incorporated. Refrigerate until needed.
• Combine cream, sugar, baking soda and allspice in a medium saucepan. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring continuously, until the mixture is thick enough that you can see the bottom of the pan when stirred, about 1 hour. If the mixture boils over, turn down the heat and continue to mix.
• Remove from the heat and let cool. The sauce should be thick enough when cool to hold its shape.

FRENCH TOAST BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Cut the bread lengthwise into 1-inch-thick strips, cutting as far down through the loaf as you can without cutting all the way through. Rotate the bread 90 degrees and cut 1-inch strips in the other direction, without cutting all the way through. Put the loaf into a 1 1/2-quart oval baking dish.
• Whisk the milk, brown sugar, cinnamon and eggs in a medium bowl until smooth. Pour the egg mixture over the bread, making sure it gets in all the crevices. Stuff the chocolate pieces in between the rows. Cover and refrigerate for 6 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Uncover the bread and drizzle with the butter. Put the baking dish in a larger baking dish and pour hot water into the larger dish until it comes 1 inch up the sides of the smaller dish. Bake until the eggs mixture is completely cooked and the top of the bread is dark golden brown and crispy, 60 to 65 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Serve with maple syrup on the side for dipping.

PUMPKIN BREAD FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• For the pumpkin bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Stir together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin spice, pumpkin puree, oil and eggs in a large bowl. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder in a medium bowl. Alternate adding the dry ingredients and 1/3 cup water to the pumpkin batter, stirring to combine after each addition. Add the batter to the prepared loaf pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
• Remove from oven, let cool for 15 minutes before removing from the pan and cooling completely.
• For the sweet cream cheese filling: Beat together the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, heavy cream, orange zest and vanilla in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• To serve: Slice the pumpkin bread into 3/4-inch-thick slices. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 slices of pumpkin bread and cook until browned on the edges. Flip and toast on the second side, a couple of minutes total. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and repeat with 4 more slices of the pumpkin bread.
• Place 1 toasted slice of pumpkin bread on a plate. Top with 1/4 cup of the sweet cream cheese, top with second toasted slice of pumpkin bread and another 1/4 cup of sweet cream cheese. Dust with confectioners' sugar and top with a candied pumpkin.
