If you are needing a great breakfast idea these French Toast Cups made in a muffin tin will be perfect. My kiddos did not have school today (teacher in service day) so I decided make them a hot breakfast this morning. Everyone of them loves french toast. So last night I whipped up a batch of these French Toast Cups, placed them in the fridge and then placed them in the oven this morning. Everyone thought they would be sleeping in but it was not long before I head the feet coming down the stairs to see what smelled so good. Yup… the smell from these french toast cups woke them without me having to, ha ha!

These French Toast Muffins were so simple and great for feeding my whole gang. I will be watching for marked down french bread in the bakery more often. These were absolutely delish! We poured on the syrup but the flavor was so wonderful that my hubby grabbed one while on the way out the door this morning and commented that no syrup was needed.

The ingredients needed for you to make your own French Toast Muffins is pretty simple…your normal ingredients for french toast. I highly recommend the french bread as it will soak up the mixture and still keep some texture.

  1. This recipe was really delicious! I made them for brunch Christmas morning and they were a huge hit from ages 4 to 84. It was simple prep. Covered it and stuck it in the fridge over night till around 11am, then brought them to my family’s house to cook them. I did cut back on the sugar in the main recipe, and only used about half of the crumble- it got plenty of sweetness with the the touch of maple syrup drizzled on them when they were done. Will definitely make them again

  2. I would have to use gluten free bread, but I love this idea. What a great idea when you have to feed a crowd!

  3. What a great idea for a brunch or take-and-go breakfast! Glad I checked out Six Sisters’ Strut your Stuff Saturday.

  4. What a great idea for breakfast, yummy! Hope you are having a fantastic weekend and thanks so much for sharing this awesome post with Full Plate Thursday.
    Come Back Soon!

  6. These look so good! I love French Toast and this is such a great alternative way to do it! Thanks for sharing :)

  7. I have got to try this! My kids love french toast and this would make a great twist. I think I could also freeze the leftovers so they could just pull them out the of the freezer and warm them up.
