Sometimes a tasty breakfast doesn't have to be an unhealthy one as the Stuffed Pumpkin French Toast demonstrates. It might be more rich than oatmeal with more carbohydrates than a classic egg and bacon combo, but it is chock full of antioxidants that support immune function and vision health as well as magnesium. Since pumpkin is low in calories as well, it doesn't make the meal too heavy.
Made with artisan bread, the Stuffed Pumpkin French Toast puts a healthy twist on a classic morning recipe. Topped with additional fruits and a bit of pumpkin spice, the use of a pumpkin puree means that high sugar syrups are not needed at all. It was created by Natalie Monson.
