Enjoy a little taste of Autumn with this Keto pumpkin stuffed french toast. This is a wonderful way to use up zero carb bread that has gone stale or sat in the freezer just a tad too long.
Pumpkin stuffed french toast offers all the sweet flavor of fall, cinnamon, ginger, and maple wrapped in a lightly sweetened cream cheese blend smothered in buttery french toast!
If you happen to have a bread machine, you can use this homemade keto yeast bread instead, it offers even better flavor than the zero carb bread from Aldi.

In a small bowl, mix the pumpkin, maple extract, cream cheese, sweetener, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until thoroughly combined.

Heat a skillet on medium heat with non-stick spray or butter.
Dip each pumpkin roll in the egg mixture, rolling over to cover each side generously.
Place the rolls in the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, rolling until egg mixture is cooked through and golden brown.
