French Toast Muffins

I love sweet and fluffy breakfasts!  Pancakes – French Toast – Waffles.  I love them all!  These are my favorites whenever we go out out to breakfast.  We rarely go out to breakfast so when we do I like to go big :).  I make sure I enjoy my “guilty” breakfast and eat something delicious!  It’s probably because at home I mainly eat cereal, oatmeal, fruit, egg whites, and other healthier breakfast options.  So when I go out I like to splurge!

So when I saw these French toast muffins on Sprinkle Bakes I knew I had to try them!  A sweet muffin fashioned to taste like your morning breakfast = Yummy!  These muffins are filled with buttermilk, eggs, and cinnamon.  These ingredients add those French toast flavors.  Each muffin is poked with small holes and then maple syrup is poured over them.  And to bring these muffins even more over the top, confectioners sugar is dusted over each muffin.

These muffins are great because they combine 2 breakfast items in one – muffins and French toast.  This makes these muffins a great breakfast option!  Especially when you are on the go. 

Eat them for breakfast, a snack, or give them to your friends and family!  They are sure to please everyone… Enjoy :)!

Makes: About 10 muffins

2 cups All Purpose Flour

¼ cup Sugar

½ tsp. Baking Soda

2 tsp. Baking Powder

2 tsp. Ground Cinnamon

½ tsp. Nutmeg

¼ tsp. Salt

2 Eggs

1 cup Buttermilk

¼ cup Unsalted Butter, Melted

Maple Syrup, for drizzling

Confectioners Sugar, for dusting (Optional)

Preheat the oven 400 degrees F.  Line a cupcake pan with paper cups.  Set aside until needed.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.  In another medium bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk, and melted butter.  Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the wet mixture.  Carefully whisk together until fully incorporated. 

Fill the paper cups until they are about 2/3 full.  Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 12 minutes. 

Remove the muffins from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes.  Then poke a few holes in each muffin.  Pour the maple syrup into a spoon and carefully spoon some syrup over each muffin.  Dust with confectioners sugar and serve warm.  Enjoy :)!
