Blueberry French Toast Muffins are the Best

Last Updated on June 21, 2024 by Lisa Keys

It seems this is the third time I am experimenting with a version of one of my favorite recipes. It happens when "I spy" a new product in the grocery store. I am not sure how long Pepperidge Farm has been making thick sliced blueberry swirl bread, but upon seeing it on the shelf I was immediately inspired to create this new version of French toast muffins. We love maple drizzled blueberry French toast, so why not a jazzed up maple blueberry French toast muffin?

Loaded with healthy wild blueberries and the very best Vermont maple syrup. I guarantee a batch of these warm blueberry French toast muffins will get you through the coldest of winter days.

• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
