Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Muffins

Here’s a delicious recipe for Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Muffins:

Ingredients

For the Muffins:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the French Toast Filling:

• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract.
4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
5. Prepare French Toast Filling: In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, sugar, and cinnamon.
6. Assemble Muffins: Spoon a small amount of muffin batter into each muffin cup, just enough to cover the bottom. Then pour a small amount of the French toast filling mixture over the batter. Add a bit more muffin batter on top of the filling to cover it completely.
7. Bake: Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Coating: While the muffins are baking, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Brush the warm muffins with melted butter and then roll or sprinkle them in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
9. Cool and Serve: Let the muffins cool slightly in the pan before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
