I'm experimenting with a third version of my favorite French toast muffins! It all started when I "spied" a new product at the grocery store. I don't know how long Pepperidge Farm has produced this thick-sliced blueberry swirl bread, but the moment I saw it on the shelf, it inspired these easy blueberry muffins.

Since we already love maple-drizzled blueberry French toast, I decided to jazz things up with a maple blueberry French toast muffin.

This recipe for breakfast muffins is loaded with healthy wild blueberries and the very best Vermont maple syrup. I guarantee a batch of these warm easy blueberry French toast muffins will get you through the coldest of winter days.

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup plus additional for serving
  • 3 eggs
  • 4 slices thick sliced blueberry swirl bread, crusts removed, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour plus a teaspoon
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 stick unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup wild blueberries fresh or frozen

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven 400F. Grease 14 standard size muffin cups with no-stick baking spray or line with paper cups.
  • In medium bowl, whisk milk, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and 1 egg until blended.

  • In medium bowl, mix 2 cups of flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt until combined.
  • In another bowl, whisk remaining 2 eggs for 30 seconds. Add buttermilk, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and melted butter; whisk well.  
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the dry; blend just until the dry ingredients are moistened (do not over mix).
  • Toss blueberries with remaining teaspoon of flour. Gently fold blueberries into batter.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Spoon the French toast topping evenly over the batter; pressing down slightly.
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Invert the muffins onto a wire rack, turn them upright; cool 5 minutes.
  • Drizzle additional maple syrup over top of warm muffins just before serving.
