Instructions
Add your eggs, pumpkin puree, whole milk or milk of choice, vanilla extract, salt and pumpkin pie spice to a small container. Mix thoroughly with a whisk until everything is well combined.
Remove the crusts off the side of each slice of bread using a sharp knife.
Use a roller or your hands to flatten the bread and then add about 1 tablespoon of whipped cream cheese to each slice of bread and spread evenly.
Roll your bread to make cream cheese roll-ups and then dip your bread into the pumpkin batter for a couple of seconds, making sure every part of the bread is covered in the batter. Remove and place on a plate.
Place a medium pan on medium high heat and spray the french toast roll ups with some avocado oil. Once the pan is hot, add your french toast roll-ups and cook for 30-40 seconds on each side of the roll-up until the batter is cooked through on the outside and slightly browned. Serve immediately either on its own or with some powdered sugar, maple syrup or date syrup.
Hint: If you are making these ahead of time for the week, make sure they cool completely before storing in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
