Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin pie spice and sugar. Add the eggs, milk and the vanilla (if using). Whisk until all combined and pour into a shallow dish, bowl or pie plate.
Using a large skillet over medium high heat, heat the butter in your skillet or pan. Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, on both sides. Fry slices until golden brown, then flip to cook the other side. Serve with maple syrup.
See my notes below on how to freeze.
Notes
*You can also cook the french toast in olive oil if desiredHow to FREEZE:Place the French toast in a single layer on a cookie sheet and put them in the freezer until partly frozen for about 1 to 2 hours. After frozen solid put the frozen French toast into a freezer bag. You can also wrap each piece of toast in a sheet of plastic food wrap, parchment paper or plastic wrap and place the wrapped toast in a freezer bag or tin foil. To re-heat, simply reheat in your toaster oven.I would try to eat the frozen french toast slices within 1-2 weeks.
