Step-by-Step Instructions for French Toast Cups

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Cut the brioche or challah bread into quarters and press 3-4 pieces into each muffin cup.
Whisk together the eggs, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over each bread cup, ensuring the bread absorbs it fully.
Let the French Toast Cups soak for about 5 minutes.
Bake for 22-25 minutes until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Cool for a few minutes before serving warm, optionally topped with syrups, fruits, or whipped cream.
