Mix pumpkin puree, eggs and sugar with whisk in large bowl. Stir in milk. Add seasonings and mix until well combined. Place butter and oil in a large skillet and heat until hot.

While it is heating, dip sliced bread into pumpkin/egg mixture until well coated. Once the pan is heated, place the bread slices in the skillet one at a time. Brown each side of the bread, until heated all the way through.
