Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together ¾ cup almond milk, ½ cup pumpkin puree, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, and ⅛ teaspoon sea salt until smooth.
  2. Arrange 8 slices of day-old ciabatta or sourdough bread in a shallow dish. Generously drizzle the pumpkin mixture over the slices, ensuring each piece is fully coated on both sides. Allow the bread to soak for about 5 minutes.
  3. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, then brush it lightly with coconut oil until it shimmers.
  4. Once the skillet is ready, place the coated bread slices in the pan. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
