Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of bread cubes day-old bread works best!
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • Optional: maple syrup for drizzling

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with muffin liners.
  2. Prepare the Bread: Cut your bread into cubes; about 1-inch pieces work best. Spread them evenly across the muffin tin to fill each cup.
  3. Mix the Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. This blend of ingredients is what will give your muffins that French toast flavor.
  4. Combine: Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes, ensuring they are well-soaked. Gently fold the mixture to coat all the bread pieces evenly.
  5. Fill and Bake: Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 of the way full. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes until they puff up and turn golden brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve with maple syrup or your favorite toppings!
