Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Generously grease a 12-cup muffin pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined. Add the cubed bread and gently stir to coat all the bread in the egg mixture. Let soak for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Meanwhile, make the streusel topping. In a small bowl, combine the cubed butter, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix it with your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs. Place it in the fridge until ready to use.

Step 4

Evenly divide the soaked bread mixture between the prepared muffin cups. Fill each one to the top. Sprinkle the streusel topping over each muffin.

Step 5

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until puffed, golden brown on top. Or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing.

Step 6

Serve the French toast muffins warm with a dusting of powdered sugar and a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy!
