    “Oh my goodness, these were SO good and easy to make! My kiddos started school, and these are the nice, quick grab-and-go breakfasts for them and their friends before I take them to school! I’ve made them with a bunch of different breads, fruits, and non-dairy milk, and they always come out delicious. Thank you for such a great idea 😁”

Then grab a few out when you wake up, and everyone can eat on the go. We don’t do this all the time, but there are many mornings when we need that extra boost of help, and these French toast muffins are perfect.

A Note From My Kitchen

If you are a meal prepper or like to have a stash of easy breakfasts in your freezer, this gluten-free French toast muffin recipe is for you. It is easy to make and perfectly freezable. It thaws in under a minute in the microwave oven.

I tested this bread with Franz Gluten-Free Blueberry Bread and 7-Grain. Unfortunately, they discontinued their blueberry flavor, so I recommend using any of their other flavors to make this recipe.

Add the wet ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to blend.

Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes and mix well. Allow the bread cubes to sit for 5-10 minutes so they absorb all the liquid.

Place the bread cube mixture into a greased muffin tin. Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes until done. Serve hot with maple syrup.

Optional tips:

This gluten-free muffin recipe is perfect just the way it is. However, there are additional flavors you can add to make it even better. Here are some ideas:

  • Drizzle the French toast muffins with maple, blueberry syrup, or even strawberry syrup for extra sweetness. 
  • Sprinkle a little bit of powdered sugar on top right before serving.
  • For special occasions, dab on some whipped cream and fresh blueberries. So delicious!

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I make these muffins nut-free?

I created this recipe to be nut-free, but feel free to add pecans, walnuts, or any other type of nut to add more protein!

Can I make French toast muffins ahead of time?

Store them in the freezer and grab one when you want it. You can defrost it on the counter, in the fridge, or toss it in the microwave for a few seconds. This is a great meal prep idea for an easy and quick breakfast.

Can I turn this into a casserole?

Yes, you sure can! This recipe is incredibly versatile, allowing you to do so much with it. You can easily transform it into a casserole instead of making muffins with it. Or you can bake it in muffin tins. It’s completely up to you and your preferences.

Notes

  1. You can use any gluten free bread in this recipe.
  2. If you don’t have blueberries on hand, use any fruit you have, including apples, strawberries, etc.
  3. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days or freeze them in a freezer-safe zipper bag.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn’t test, my rule of thumb is to add more flour if your dough or batter is wet and add more liquid if the dough or batter is too dry!
