Ingredients

Servings

Cheesecake Spread:

  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice fresh squeezed

French Toast Muffins:

  • 8 lices sandwich bread
  • 4 large egg
  • 2 cups milk or almond milk, skim or low fat
  • ¼ cup sugar or a natural granulated sweetener
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract pure
  • ½ medium lemon extra, optional, juiced
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh, plus 1/4 cup extra for the top

Streusel Topping:

  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup flour
  • ¼ cup butter cold

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180C | 350F; line a 12-cup non-stick muffin tray with muffin liners OR spray with cooking oil spray; wipe over excess and set aside.

For Muffins:

  1. Combine cream cheese, 1 teaspoon sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl; mix to combine.
  2. Spread cream cheese mixture over 1 side of each slice of bread. Sandwich two slices together at a time and cut each sandwich into 1-inch cubes. (You should end up with 8 cups of cubed bread).
  3. Whisk the eggs, milk, ¼ cup of sugar, salt (if using) and vanilla together in a large shallow dish. Add the bread and mix it through the egg wash (using your hands is easier than a spoon), until all bread is thoroughly soaked. Drizzle extra lemon juice over the top (optional), and gently fold through the blueberries. Using a spoon, fill the muffin cups with the french toast mix (about 3 tablespoons per muffin hole). Set aside and make your streusel:

To make Streusel:

  1. Combine the sugar and flour in a small bowl; cut in butter using a metal fork until crumbly. Sprinkle over muffins. Top with extra blueberries.
  2. Bake muffins 20-30 minutes, or until streusel on top has turned golden in colour. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan 5 minutes, or they may fall apart when taken out too soon.
  3. Serve straight away with maple syrup.

Notes

  • These can also be served with ice cream, frozen yogurt or extra fresh blueberries. Alternatively, store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Reheat in the oven when needed following instructions above. (Microwaving the muffins to reheat them creates a soggier muffin rather than the crispy freshly baked muffin and is not recommended).
