Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Muffins
Ingredients:
1 loaf of French bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 cups milk
6 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the topping:
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin with nonstick spray or butter.
Prepare the bread: Place the bread cubes in a large bowl.
Make the custard: In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Pour the melted butter into the mixture and stir to combine.
Soak the bread: Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes. Gently stir to ensure all the bread is coated. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the custard.
Fill the muffin tin: Evenly distribute the soaked bread cubes into the prepared muffin tin, pressing them down gently to fit as many cubes as possible.
Bake the muffins: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and set in the center.
Prepare the topping: While the muffins are baking, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Melt the butter in a separate bowl.
Add the topping: Once the muffins are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Brush the tops with the melted butter and sprinkle generously with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Serve: Serve warm, and enjoy your Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Muffins!
