Microwave French Toast in a Mug

If you're looking for super quick and easy breakfast ideas for busy mornings, this recipe is great for kids before school, busy adults, college students, or anyone who's always running out the door in the morning. Super fun and cheap to make in your microwave! No baking or stove required.

Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: French
Keyword: breakfast, easy, french toast, kids, microwave, no bake, quick
Servings: 1
Ingredients
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp syrup
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 heaping cup bread pieces *see notes
Instructions
  1. Place the butter in a large mug or small bowl; microwave until melted (about 20 seconds).

  2. Add the egg, milk, syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Whisk with a fork until well blended.

  3. Add the bread pieces and gently stir making sure the egg mixture is coated evenly throughout.

  4. Microwave for 90 seconds and then check for doneness. Microwave in 20 second intervals after that. It takes about 2 minutes in my microwave, but you may have to experiment.

Recipe Notes
  • *Use a hearty bread such as sourdough or french bread torn up into bite-size pieces. Stale bread works, too! You just don't want a soft white bread that turns into mush.
  • You can additionally top with anything you'd like such as more syrup, powdered sugar, berries, banana slices, nuts, peanut butter, chocolate chips, whipped cream, etc.
