Seriously, if you love french toast, you have to make these Stuffed French Toast Muffins at least once in your life.  I took my classic French Toast Casserole recipe that I make every year at Christmas and thought I would make it perfect for back to school by making in muffin tins.

Then, why stop there. I added cream cheese and some blackberries.  My hubby says cause I am awesome like that. LOL, I am pretty sure that I have created a monster. French toast casserole that is perfect for any day of the week.  I am not sure I can ever go back to a full french toast casserole again.

I can divide the muffin pan and make some gluten-free, some with filling, some without, use different fruits, the possibilities are endless.  And I only have to bake them once! LOVE!

In a large bowl, I whisked together the eggs, milk, sugar, and a little bit of cinnamon.

Then in a greased muffin tin, fill each spot with diced french bread cubes. Just smash them in there. You aren’t going to hurt anything. Finally, you are going to get a ladle, or a big spoon, and start filling each cup with the egg/milk mix. The more you can get in there the better. Smush the bread again, and pour a little more.  Cover the entire pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, better overnight.

In the morning, mix the cream cheese, egg, and sugar until creamy. Spoon about 1 tbsp into the center of each muffin. Shhh…you can put as much as you want. Then top with your choice of fruit. I used frozen blackberries because that is what I had. These would also be fabulous with strawberries, raspberries, even fresh cherries.

Pop them into the oven and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F. Serve immediately. You can dust with powdered sugar if you want, but they are AMAZING just the way they are.
