29Jul2014French Toast Muffins Jump to Recipe Print Recipe French Toast Muffins recipe – Sweet, cinnamon & brown sugar muffins topped with pieces of french toast. Such a great breakfast with a hot cup of coffee! I think french toast was one of the first things I ever learned how to cook. That and instant mashed potatoes. You know, the white powder that comes in a box? I remember many a summer, my sister and I in the kitchen watching some crazy MTV show on the tiny little kitchen cart tv, with mashed potatoes cooking on the stove. Ahh… memories. 🙂 I can honestly say now, those mashed potato flakes are GROSS. But french toast? Yum! Just regular french toast is good enough for me, and when I get sick of feeding the boys cereal – I am more than ready to whip up a batch for us. The only thing that’s annoying about french toast is, unless you want to drag your huge honking griddle out, you’re cooking batch after batch. It takes a while. Ok, don’t judge me that I don’t feel like getting out my griddle! Everyone stores that thing in the underneath-the-oven drawer with like a billion heavy glass baking dishes on top. Who wants to do all that workout without even finishing your coffee? Not me!! These muffins are THE PERFECT solution! Plus, they are absolutely wonderful for busy back to school mornings when the kids need something quick before they run out the door. My two gobbled the whole batch up in 3 days – they loved them THAT much! No syrup needed on these babies, yum!!
