Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 whole English muffins
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- to taste Maple syrup or powdered sugar (for serving)
Instructions
Split the English muffins in half and lightly toast them. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and salt until well combined.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Dip each half of the toasted English muffins into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated but not overly saturated.
Place the coated muffin halves on the preheated skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Repeat with the remaining muffin halves, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Allow the French-toasted muffins to cool completely on a wire rack before freezing.
To freeze, place the cooled muffins on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze for 1 hour. Then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or airtight container. Label the container and store for up to 3 months.
To reheat, remove the desired number of muffins from the freezer and microwave for 30-60 seconds, or toast them in a toaster oven until heated through.
Serve with maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar and enjoy!
