Day 2 of my 7-Day Microwave Mug Challenge! Check out the original recipe here.

I found it a little hard to follow with the directions split up with step-by-step pictures. I love including pictures, but I also like to have all the important parts in one place so I can review the whole process before beginning. I am a nerd.

Ingredients:

• 2 pieces of bread
• butter, 1/2 tablespoon
• 1 egg
• milk, 3 tablespoons
• cinnamon, sprinkle
• vanilla, to taste
• syrup, if desired

1. Lightly toast the bread and cube into 1-inch pieces. I used two slices of bread, because who just eats one piece of French Toast?

2. Microwave the butter in the mug until melted; slosh around until the inside is coated. Fill the mug with the bread cubes.

3. In a small bowl, combine egg, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla. Pour into mug over the bread pieces. Stir around until they are evenly coated. Microwave for 1 minutes and 20 seconds.

Once again, these people are using Lilliputian-sized coffee mugs.

I’m sorry, but that photo is just too pretty. Nothing comes out of the microwave looking that pretty. Mine certainly didn’t!

ShinyHappyPeebles’ French Toast in a Cup

Pretty easy recipe with minimal mess — though I would say it turns out more like a bread pudding. I still prefer some crispy on the outside, mushy on the inside, skillet French Toast!
