It’s a tasty tri-fecta!  It’s a muffin, french toast and bread pudding all in one!  It’s like French Toast and Bread Pudding had a baby…a really yummy baby!

You could serve these with maple syrup for breakfast or with ice cream for dessert.  They are super simple to make, just allow yourself several hours or overnight for the bread and egg to soak.  Perfect make ahead breakfast for the Holidays!

Ingredients

  • 1 inch loaf French bread cut or torn into 1/2 cubes (about 12 cups of bread)
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • For the Cinnamon Streusel Topping:
  • 1/4 cup cold butter
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose Gold Medal flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Butter and Maple Syrup for serving, optional

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon.
  • Grease a 12 cup muffin tin. Add about 1 cup of bread cubes to each muffin cup. Carefully pour egg and milk mixture evenly over each muffin tin. You may need to press down on the bread cubes after you pour a little mixture and then pour more. Pour slowly or you will have a mess. Cover the muffins with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. To make the cinnamon streusel, in a small bowl, combine butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Mix together with your hands, until you have a crumbly mixture. Remove the muffins from the refrigerator and sprinkle the muffins evenly with the streusel topping.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Let muffins cool for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and serve with butter and maple syrup, if desired.

    These sound amazing! I am always looking for great recipes to make ahead for school mornings for a large family or for my husband to take with him when he leaves in the wee hours of the morning for his shift at work. Do this freeze well or hold up in the refrigerator for reheating in the future? I plan quick meals for hubby to take to work so he does not have to think about breakfast for his 6am shifts. Thanks!

      Yes I made them and they were great! You can definitely make these the day before. It would be like bread pudding the day after and that certainly is a good thing! The will retain there height and will not be mushy – soft, but not mushy. You can zap them a bit in the micro to heat them up. Magic retained!
      Thanks!
