Apple cinnamon french toast cupcakes with maple cream cheese frosting

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tsp of vanilla
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups low fat buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups low fat milk
  • 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 golden delicious apple, peeled and diced
  • 12 slices or 5 cups of day old french bread, cubed
Mix up the eggs, vanilla, and sugar. Add in the milks, cinnamon, and apples. Fold in the bread.
Let it all sit for about 15 minutes. Fill muffin liners full.

I managed to get 16 muffins out of this mix.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 22-25 minutes. Allow to cool.

For the yummy maple frosting you'll need:
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 1 8 oz package of softened cream cheese
  • 1 tsp maple extract
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
Mix together the butter, cream cheese and extracts until fluffy. Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time until desired consistency is reached.

Top frosting with a sprinkle of raw sugar if desired.
