French Toast Cups: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 45 minute

Ingredients

– 6 slices of bread (preferably thick, like brioche or challah)
– 4 large eggs
– 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
– 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– ½ teaspoon salt
– Butter or cooking spray (for greasing the muffin tin)
– Optional toppings: maple syrup, fresh berries, powdered sugar, whipped cream


Instructions

Making French Toast Cups is a simple process if you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Bread: Cut the bread slices into small cubes, about 1-inch in size. You can leave the crusts on for added texture.
3. Mix the Custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
4. Combine Bread and Custard: Add the bread cubes to the custard mixture, gently folding until all the bread is well coated. Allow it to soak for about 5 minutes.
5. Fill the Muffin Tin: Using a spoon, divide the soaked bread mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
6. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and puffed.
7. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. This helps the cups firm up and makes them easier to remove.
8. Remove from Muffin Tin: Carefully run a knife around the edges of each cup and gently lift them out of the tin.
9. Serve Warm: Transfer the French Toast Cups to a serving plate.
