I have a short message and sweet for your friends today. I'm a little tired with is packed and ready to head the Wisconsin snow for the week (assuming my flight out,) but I could not resist sharing this delightful idea breakfast with you in advance ! I made them for brunch recently and would be another good idea for Christmas morning or any day before or after you want something easy and comforting.
Cinnamon muffin is topped with pieces of real french toast that are brushed with maple syrup after cooking and topped with cinnamon and sugar. They really taste like french toast and easy to throw together in advance and warm slightly before serving.
