Picture of the day #149

This yummy treat is what Tim made for his Young Men today. One of them said this is the best muffin I've ever had...then Tim said that is what you said last week with the homemade chocolate chip muffins!! Ha,ha,ha! Since they all thought it was so good I will include the recipe:

French Toast Muffins
Muffins
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Topping
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

French Toast Topping
3 tablespoons milk
1 egg, slightly beaten
6 slices cinnamon bread, crusts trimmed, cut into 1/2 inch cubes

Preheat over to 375 degrees

Combine all the french toast topping ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside.

Combine 1 cup milk, melted butter, 1 egg, and vanilla extract in another medium bowl. Combine all remaining muffin ingredients in a large bowl. Stir mild mixture into flour mixture just until mixed.

Spoon batter into a greased or lined 12 cup muffin pan. Spoon French toast topping evenly over batter; press down slightly. Bake 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Immediately brush muffins with maple syrup. Combine sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Sprinkle over glazed muffins. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pan. Serve warm.
