Ingredients

Streusel Topping (optional):

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, maple, cinnamon, and brown sugar.
  • Cut bread into about 1 - 1 ½ in. pieces.
  • Combine bread and blueberries with the egg mixture and stir to allow bread to soak up all the liquid.
  • Spoon bread and egg mixture into greased or lined muffin tins, pressing the mixture gently down to keep any air bubbles or space from being made between bread pieces.
  • Stir together the streusel topping ingredients so it's nice and crumbly. If it seems too wet, add an extra teaspoon or two of flour and stir. Sprinkle over top of each muffin to cover.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until top is golden brown and sides of muffins are no longer wet. The muffins will puff up a lot in the oven and then settle down after cooling a bit.
  • Cool for several minutes before serving. Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.

Notes

  • Muffin liners can be used but not necessary. If you spray or grease the muffin cavities well, these will easily pop out of the muffin tin after baking. If you want to be extra cautious, go ahead and use them!
  • Grease the muffin tin well or line it. It can be challenging to get these muffins out of the tin if it hasn't been appropriately greased. These muffins mainly rise straight up but the tops may get stuck as well so grease the top surface of the muffin tin as well.
  • Day old bread works really well to keep the bread from becoming overly soggy. Just like when you make stuffing or another French Toast bake, bread that is too fresh can become very soggy when combined with the dry ingredients. This is not the worst thing for some people, but others may not like that as much. If so, let your bread slices sit out overnight. That will allow them to dry out a bit and absorb the egg mixture without breaking down too much.
