Ingredients
For the Muffins:
- 10 slices of Toast bread cut into small cubes
- 1 and 1/2 cups whole milk
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- First, cut your toast sliced bread into small cubes. This helps them hold up better when soaked in the custard mix.
- Whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until everything is fully combined. You want the mixture to be smooth and well-mixed so that it coats the bread cubes evenly.
- Add your bread cubes into the mixture and stir. You want the bread to soak up the custard but not fall apart. Let it sit for about 5 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your muffin tin with a little butter or non-stick spray. Spoon the mixture into each muffin cup. Don’t worry if they seem a little packed in; that’s the perfect way to get soft, fluffy muffins.
- Mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl and generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over each muffin. Pop them in the oven for about 20 minutes. Enjoy!
Notes
- Over Whisking can cause the eggs to foam, which could affect the texture. A gentle whisk will create a smooth, creamy base that coats the bread evenly.
- If you decide to use a different-sized muffin tin, adjust the baking time.
