Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Let the bread sit out as long as you can (I leave the sticks out overnight) or bake in a 275 degree oven for 10 minutes.
Add the milk, eggs, pumpkin, vanilla, sugar, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger in a bowl together and whisk until combined.
Put ½ tablespoon of butter in a pan/large griddle.
Dunk the bread into the custard and cook on a griddle on medium heat until browned on all sides.
When you've done all the sticks roll the sticks in your ½ cup of brown sugar and put back on the griddle cooking until the brown sugar is melted on all sides.
When the brown sugar cools it will harden.
Serve with maple syrup or enjoy as is!
