    Pumpkin maple crockpot French toast is the perfect breakfast for busy school mornings. It's also a lifesaver when you have company visiting and want to spend time with them - not in the kitchen!

    Before moving to Florida I lived in Maryland. My husband and had been looking for a house for some time. Our girls were almost five and two, and we were ready to leave behind the townhouse they had lived in since they were born.

    I'll never forget the ad in the paper; A little bit of heaven, bring your horses. We didn't have horses but had talked about it. I told the realtor to turn around twice - it was too far out in the boondocks for me!

    And as we came up over the hill and saw the home, I knew I had to live there. Sitting on almost seven acres of farmland, we were home. As crazy coincidences go, our neighbor had gone to high school with my husband's brother. What are the chances?

    Would I like him to plow a garden plot to get me started? Yes! And make it big! He did, and I kept up with it for a while, but it got smaller every year. The weeds got the best of me. We grew tomatoes, zucchini, potatoes, watermelon, and pumpkins.
    Fall puts most of us in the mood for pumpkin. I hope you enjoy the pumpkin maple French toast and it makes your life a little easier during this busy time of year.

      Despite the mix up with the ingredients and instructions, I’m pretty sure it’s safe to say you put bread in a slow cooker then mix everything else together and pour on top of the bread. Slow cooker recipes are pretty uncomplicated like that! PS. I’m pretty sure the picture of the food isn’t the right one for recipe either.

      Aside from all the errors listed above, also no mention of butter in the ingredients yet it says to add the cubed butter in #6 of the instructions. Someone mixed up 2 different recipes

      Anyone know the correct ingredients? The ingredients listed half and half , nutmeg , cloves and maple syrup is listed twice but in 2 different measures. Instructions say wisk ingredients not on the ingredients list milk, pumpkin creamer, salt and cinnamon . Wisk in sugar, brown and confectioners both, or is the confectioners for the top after baking?
      If anyone has the corrected recipe please post as I would love to try this Thanks, Pat

        I was getting ready to post that items were missing from the list of ingredients that were put in the crockpot. Guess I won't make this. Too much sugar.

      Also missing from the ingredients is: milk,salt, cinnamon, and the pumpkin creamer. In the instructions no mention is given on cloves. It does however look scrumptious. How many servings does it make?

        It's in the egg mixture, however pumpkin creamer isn't mentioned, just half and half. Recipe is not right. Maybe she will make a correction.

      I see pumpkin creamer in the instructions, however creamer is not listed in the ingredients. Did I miss something?
