Muffin Tin French Toast (NEW!)


Ingredients:

1 loaf of thick French Toast bread
6 eggs
¾ cup milk
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
¾ teaspoon cinnamon
Dash of nutmeg

Directions:

Cut the bread into little squares and arrange on a cookie sheet. Bake in a 250 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes until dry and a little crispy. In a medium bowl, mix the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg until well combined. Mix bread cubes into the egg mixture. Spray a regular muffin tin with olive oil or pam. Scoop the bread cubes into the muffin cups. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until set and lightly golden brown. While the French Toast in baking mix up a batch of Homemade Syrup to drizzle over the top. Once the French toast is done, remove from muffin tins and place on wax paper until ready to serve.

Yummy!
