Easy Baked French Toast Bites (Freezer-Friendly and Kid-Approved)

These Easy Baked French Toast Bites are a game-changer for busy mornings. No standing over a stove top flipping slices.  Just mix, pour, and bake. They are crispy on the edges and soft in the center. I usually make these on Sunday or when we have some bread left that needs to be used before it goes bad. Think of them as a great way to use up odds and ends before the next grocery haul. Plus- they are freezer-friendly so great for mornings on the go. If I could give anyone advice on where to start with meal prep, it would be breakfast.  Starting the day off without a messy kitchen and getting the kids full bellies with nutritious food before school can be life changing.

I have a partnership with GreenPan and recently tried their non-stick bakeware.  My only question is why didn’t I get it sooner?  I will share the link just

In case you need to upgrade your muffin tins. They have definitely cut down on clean up.

Equipment

  • 1 medium bowl
  • 1 muffin tin
  • 1 cookie scoop #30 or 3 tbsp/ muffin tin

Ingredients

  • extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil
  • 7 slices bread chopped into bits (I love Izzio)
  • 4 organic eggs
  • 1 cup organic whole milk
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 2 tsp organic cinnamon
  • ½ tsp all-spice
  • ¼ cup organic maple syrup
  • tsp pink Himalaya salt or sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉
  • Lightly grease the muffin tin using extra virgin olive oil
  • In a small bowl, combine 1 cup organic whole milk and 1 tbsp white vinegar. Whisk and let rest 5 minutes. This makes buttermilk, so you don't have to buy extra.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together 4 organic eggs, milk mixture, 2 tsp organic cinnamon, ½ tsp all-spice, ¼ cup organic maple syrup, ⅛ tsp pink Himalaya salt, ¼ tsp baking soda, ½ tsp baking powder.
  • Once combined, add in the 7 slices bread. Mix until all of the bread is coated. Let sit 10 minutes.
  • Use the #20 cookie scoop and scoop into 12 muffin tins. Try to make the liquid with the bread close to an even amount in each tin.
  • Back at 350℉ for 18-22 minutes.
  • Remove and let rest 10 minutes before serving. Serve with maple syrup.
