Pumpkin Pie French Toast Roll Ups

Everything you love about pumpkin pie and French toast — in one warm, creamy, hand-held roll-up. Perfect for cozy fall breakfasts or festive brunches.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8–10 roll ups 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Filling:
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp ground ginger
  • Pinch of cloves
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened (optional)
  • For the Roll Ups:
  • 8–10 slices soft white or wheat sandwich bread, crusts removed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Butter or oil, for cooking
  • For Finishing:
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • Maple syrup (for serving)
  • Optional: cinnamon sugar for rolling cooked roll-ups

Instructions

  1. Make the Filling: In a small bowl, mix pumpkin puree, brown sugar, spices, and cream cheese until smooth.
  2. Prep the Bread: Flatten each slice with a rolling pin. Spread 1–2 teaspoons of filling at one end and roll tightly.
  3. Make the Custard: In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon.
  4. Cook: Heat butter/oil in a skillet over medium. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture and cook seam-side down until golden on all sides (2–3 minutes per side).
  5. Finish: Let cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar or roll in cinnamon sugar. Serve warm with maple syrup.

Notes

  • Use soft, fresh sandwich bread — it rolls without cracking.
  • Don’t overfill; a thin layer of pumpkin works best.
  • Roll-ups can be prepped ahead and cooked fresh in the morning.
  • Bake instead of pan-frying: 375°F for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Try filling variations like chocolate chips, chopped pecans, or maple extract.
