French Toast Muffins


For breakfast - are you savory or sweet?  I'm usually savory and I don't stray far from the following order: scrambled eggs, bagel, sliced tomatoes and bacon, well done please.  Servers HATE when you say "well done please" but I'm sorry, I have to say it.  There is nothing worse than fatty bacon.  IN LIFE!  Anyway, occasionally I have a craving for pancakes or french toast.  Like, now, when I'm almost 6 months pregnant.  And when my friend sent me a link for French Toast Muffins, I was sold. 

My favorite part of this recipe is the cinnamon raisin toast that is cubed, soaked in egg and milk and placed a top each muffin.  And then AFTER baking, you dip those tops in melted butter and cinnamon sugar.  Duh.  You could even sprinkle some maple syrup on top, but I thought the teaspoon of maple extract in the wet ingredients gave them more than enough of the familiar flavor.   

These muffins would be the perfect thing to make your mama this Sunday (that's right fellas, THIS SUNDAY).  So go to this recipe, and check out my friend Katy's blog in a few days for more Mother's Day Brunch ideas (she is also responsible for lovely photo above).
