6. Adding Optional Add-ins
If desired, sprinkle raisins, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts over the top of each muffin for added flavor and texture.
7. Baking the Muffins
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The tops should be slightly crisp while the insides remain soft and custardy.
8. Preparing the Cinnamon Sugar Topping
While the muffins are baking, combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Melt the butter in a separate dish.
9. Coating the Muffins
Once the muffins are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly in the pan. Brush the tops of each muffin with melted butter, then generously sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture. This adds a delightful crunch and sweetness to the muffins.
10. Serving the Muffins
Transfer the Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Muffins to a serving platter. They are best enjoyed warm, either on their own or with a drizzle of maple syrup. These muffins make a perfect breakfast, brunch treat, or a sweet snack anytime.
