French Toast Muffins with Pecan Streusel Topping
If you haven't been able to tell yet, I am a HUGE fan of breakfast. I've always loved breakfast food the most, even when I was a picky eater child. I often make breakfast for dinner…my kids have nicknamed it brinner, I'm sure it will catch on soon!
These French Toast Muffins are easy to make and delicious to eat! They are perfect for breakfast, brunch or brinner! The real winner here is the Pecan Streusel Topping.
Hope you Enjoy!

Instructions
- In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, vanilla and sugar.

Could you bake this in a 13×9 pan?
I know my family would like this but they aren’t “fans” of muffins. I’d trick them with the pan way
You should be able to. You may have to increase the baking time. 🙂
