When you need French toast in a flash! 1, 2, 3 in the microwave, gluten-free and vegan; breakfast will never be boring again, even when you’re in a rush! Plus there’s no mess to clean up!
February’s Theme – Cooks aren’t always pressed for time in the mornings – they just need new ideas. Think mug cakes, smoothie bowls, breakfast cookies and more. Show us the healthy way you wake up your breakfast – or wake up just for breakfast! (Recipe ReDux)
O, French toast. It’s one of those things I don’t make very often, but when I do, it’s always a pleasant gift. However, I feel like French toast is always the messiest and most “difficult” of the 3 greats (i.e. pancakes, waffles, and French toast). I’m not sure why, but I just do. For pancakes and waffles you just have to whip up some flour and liquid in a bowl. For French toast you have to make a great vegan liquid mixture, soak some stellar gluten-free bread and then…”toast”. I don’t know, maybe I’m just biased for pancakes!
But you know, I’ve always loved mug cakes. I haven’t made one in a very long time, but last year, any breakfast I could make in a “mug” and in the microwave was the name of the game! Dorm living ain’t so great for fancy breakfasts! And then BAM, one day you get a killer craving for French toast but realize the classic isn’t so feasible. All you have is a few minutes before class and a microwave…options?
WAIT! All is not lost! There was a solution and French toast was able to happen…and boy, did it happen! With the magic of one of my favorite appliances and a magical ramekin that never fails me, a microwave French toast “mug cake” was born!
I think you can make anything in the microwave if you try! That’s why I will never EVER understand how people can scoff and do without them. That’s just…not fun. How could you make the best potatoes then? Yes, when I eat a potato, it goes in the microwave! A microwaved Japanese sweet with nut butter and cinnamon…all I want! Best way to make them and so quick when I’m feeling lazy for dinner (which is a lot of the time!). But we’re here to talk French toast, so I’ll hold back on the potato love for now!
I mean, if the microwave can make good French toast, then it just has to be the winning appliance. People say they don’t like French toast because it’s really just soggy bread. I get it. French toast will never be “actually” crunchy like toast, but it can be crispy or you can even coat it with some corn crumbs. When you make it in a mug, it’s more like a French to-no-st. Er, uh, “bake”. It’s just a warm little bowl of chopped of cinnamony and maple syrup soaked bread…but so good! So obviously not your classic, which means even if you think you don’t like French toast, I want you to give this mini microwave one a try!
So are you interested in my super simple recipe? I’ll tell you I am! Haha! After years of not understanding why I felt so sick after my mom would make my brother and I French toast on those rare occasions, to then eating some Van’s gluten-free toaster French toast (but that has soy, so now more), to making my own, and now making my own…in a flash and in my baby ramekin, I am French toast pleased! You will too…as long as you have a microwave!

Mini Microwave French Toast
When you need French toast in a flash! 1, 2, 3 in the microwave, gluten-free and vegan; breakfast will never be boring again, even when you’re in a rush! Plus there’s no mess to clean up!
- Cook Time: 2 mins
- Total Time: 2 mins
- Yield: 1 1x
- Category: Breakfast
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 2 Slices of Gluten-Free (Vegan) Cinnamon Raisin Bread*
- 1 Flax Egg (1 TB Milled Flax Seed + 3 TB Flax Milk or Water)
- 1 TB Unsweetened Flax Milk (or non-dairy milk of choice)
- 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 Tsp Pure Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 TB Raisins
- Maple Syrup (topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the flax egg and allow it to sit.
- Cut up your bread into cubes (stale bread is best, or you can lightly toast it if you have time).
- Add the cubes to a ramekin or wide mug, pour in the flax egg, milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and raisins.
- Give everything a mix and allow the bread to soak in the goodness for a minute of two.
- Then microwave on high for 2 minutes.
- Top with anything your French heart desires!
Notes
If you’re not vegan, Canyon Bakehouse makes a great Cinnamon Raisin Bread (it includes egg). If you’re vegan, Food For Life makes a great gluten-free vegan option!
Nutrition
- Serving Size: 1
Mmmm, French toast in a mug..er…ramekin. You know, I’ve never made a “mug cake” in an actual mug. I’ve tried a few times, but it never cooks correctly. My ramekin seems to be the only vessel that “bakes the cake”. At least with this microwave French toast, it doesn’t have to actually “bake”…just warm. But calling it a French toast mug cake just didn’t sound as good as microwave French toast…mini microwave French toast! Now get those ramekins out and breakfast away!
So tell me:
+ French toast (aka soggy bread) hater or lover? Eh, it’s still last in the breakfast trifecta for me!
+ What’s your favorite thing to make in the microwave? POTATOES…and porridge <3

audrey @ unconventional baker says
March 4, 2016 at 1:35 amI never make anything in the microwave really. Might use it to heat things up from time to time and for the rare mug cake emergency 😉 But gosh it is a time saver when it comes to melting chocolate…
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
March 4, 2016 at 7:15 amMy microwave is my baby!

March 2, 2016 at 8:32 pmYES! I crown this the new breakfast of champions! Just a few ingredients and just a few minutes and breakfast is ready! This sounds awesome. I love how you take a complicated & time consuming recipe & turn it into a quick & simple one. You are my breakfast hero. And thank you for sharing your bread brands as I was wondering which to try (I always buy Food for Life, but I’m not sure I noticed the cinnamon raisin one as I always get the millet – I need to switch it up!).
I’m pinning & sharing (and bookmarking!). Have a great week Rebecca!

I love french toast, and I have some Udi’s bread in the frig, it’s not cinnamon raisin, but I’ll add my own. So cool, I have a ramekin in the cupboard just begging for this recipe! Thanks.

Kathryn Grace says
February 26, 2016 at 11:26 pmHmmm. No microwave, but I could probably figure out a way to do this in the toaster oven. Thanks!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 26, 2016 at 11:36 pmOne word….how!?!?!?

Donna says
February 26, 2016 at 10:25 amOh wow, I need to give this a try! I agree with you, french toast can be difficult for some reason – my last attempt was a giant flop (on christmas morning no less)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 26, 2016 at 11:06 amO boy! Haha! I don’t know why it is!!! But this one will not let you down!
Mary Ellen @ VNutrition says
February 26, 2016 at 9:27 amThis is such a great idea! I never feel like making french toast but I would actually take the time to do this. So creative. 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 26, 2016 at 11:02 amRight? Haha! Me too! Lazy days!
Stephanie says

Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 25, 2016 at 2:53 pmThank you Michelle!
Angie says
February 25, 2016 at 12:14 amI love your microwave French toast idea! Recently, I challenged myself on meals I could make in the microwave, crockpot, and toaster (the mega challenge because my toaster is ancient).
My mom used to make French toast. Soggy at first but crispy delicious when we ate it.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 25, 2016 at 6:23 amIt can take the magic touch to make perfect French toast!
Gin says
February 24, 2016 at 2:44 pmOh my gosh, I had NO idea you could use a flax egg to make French toast. You’re a genius!! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 24, 2016 at 3:14 pmLol, I find that hard to believe my vegan friend 😉
Sarah Reid, CNP (@jo_jo_ba) says
February 24, 2016 at 9:51 amNever thought to nuke french toast, it sounds awesome for busy mornings!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 24, 2016 at 11:42 amHaha, yes it is!
Jenna @ A Savory Feast says
February 24, 2016 at 9:44 amOooh this sounds good! I’m with you, I don’t make french toast that often because it’s more work and messier in my opinion too. This is a much easier method, plus it’s better for you!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 24, 2016 at 11:41 amYes! Now it’s super simple and “clean” 😉
Jamie @ Medium Sized Family says
February 24, 2016 at 9:08 amYou’re right, I’ve definitely never considered using the microwave for French toast! Honestly, I use mine for melting butter more than anything else. This is intriguing. I’m going to have to try it.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 24, 2016 at 11:40 amHaha, I hope you do! No butter required 😉
ARTantana says
February 24, 2016 at 7:10 amThis is definitely a must try for me. I love these recipes that are yummy and I don’t have to spend hours in kitchen. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Dubai and will be back for more. Have a great day till then 🙂
Shantana
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 24, 2016 at 7:32 amFantastic! I’m glad you like the idea, now I hope you can give it a try!
Mel@avirtualvegan.com says
February 24, 2016 at 12:10 amI LOVE french toast! It beats pancakes and waffles for me but it’s saved for a weekend treat because I don’t have the time on weekdays. Now I can have this when I get those french toast cravings during the week! I’m a happy girl :O)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 24, 2016 at 7:31 amYou may be one of the only 😉 Well more French Toast for you, I’ll take you pancakes 😉
Sonali- The Foodie Physician says
February 23, 2016 at 11:41 pmAll of the flavors of French toast with none of the fuss- yum!

February 23, 2016 at 7:40 pmVery easy one! No one say no to this????
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 7:42 pmThat’s right!
Nicole says
February 23, 2016 at 6:09 pmI completely agree that French Toast is one of the messier of those for sure which is why I don’t make it as often either. Your recipe sounds super easy though, can’t wait to try!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 6:11 pmAh! See, and now we all can!
Honest Mum says
February 23, 2016 at 4:06 pmDelicious!

Alanna says
February 23, 2016 at 9:36 amThis is amazing!! I love the idea of getting up and making French toast, but this seems much more realistic for me haha Quick, simple and delicious!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 10:51 amMuch more realistic for all of us 😉
neil@neilshealthymeals.com says
February 23, 2016 at 8:01 amNow, whilst I’ve confessed to you that I’m way behind in the slow cooker scheme of things, Rebecca, I’m definitely in with the mug cake crowd! Well, OK, I made Lynne and I our first one’s on Sunday but that does at least count doesn’t it?
That one I did on Sunday was for pudding. And you say this one is for breakfast? YES PLEASE! Especially when french toast is one of Lynne’s favourites! I will SO get brownie points for this. Pinned! 😀
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 10:50 amHahahahahaha! At least it was done! You’re on the right track, Neil 😉
Ooo yes! You will be #1 husband 😉
Kat @ Eat.Love.Live says
February 23, 2016 at 6:58 amWhat a fab idea. With all the yummy spices in this recipe I bet it is delicious!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 10:48 amJust cinnamon, but cinnamon is always perfect!
Vanessa @ VeganFamilyRecipes.com says
February 23, 2016 at 6:11 amWhat an awesome idea, Rebecca! Definitely need to make this one for breakfast 🙂 stumbled!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 6:26 amFor sure! Thank you Vanessa!
pragati says
February 23, 2016 at 4:42 amLooks like bread pudding ????…and yeah…French Toast can get so soggy..used to be more fond of the spicy French toast my granny made..p
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 6:31 amHaha! Woh, spicy French toast?? Now that sounds awesome!
Farrah says
February 22, 2016 at 11:17 pmI haven’t had french toast in the longest time, but I love how quick this is, and the fact that you can make em’ in a ramekin/microwave! <3 (I need to get ramekins!)
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:54 amRamekin/microwave combos always lead to the yummiest results 😉
Faith VanderMolen says
February 22, 2016 at 11:06 pmSo cute and simple! French toast is usually thought of as a big ordeal, but anyone could make this!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:53 amExactly! Had to simplify the process 😉
Michelle @ The Complete Savorist says
February 22, 2016 at 11:02 pmWhat a great idea! Do you think if I used an egg it would come out the same way?
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:53 amI wouldn’t know. I don’t use eggs nor have ever cooked with them.
Dee Dee (My Midlife Kitchen) says
February 22, 2016 at 10:33 pmMy sister and I used to fight every Sunday after church (maybe we didn’t listen hard enough!) about whether we could get our dad to make french toast or waffles. I always wanted the french toast–and if we’d had this recipe I could have won every week with my own personal version! Yum!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:52 amHahahaha! Well now you can make up for lost years and have this for breakfast and a possible snack almost everyday 😉
Michele @ paleorunningmomma says
February 22, 2016 at 10:06 pmSo cute! I bet my kids would love 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:50 amThat I know they would 😉
dixya @ food, pleasure, and health says
February 22, 2016 at 9:53 pmthis is such a simple idea…plus maybe if i wake up 15 minutes prior, i can have french toast for breakfast everyday,
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:50 amHa, perfect for a late riser!
Melissa @ vegan does it says
February 22, 2016 at 9:44 pmI love this! French toast has always been a favorite of mine mostly because my dad used to make it for me when I was little. He passed away when I was really young so I really cherish those memories of mornings with syrup drenched soggy bread with him! Definitely going to have to try this!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:49 amAwww, well I’m sure this won’t stack up to those drenched bread memories (parents make the best soggy toast!), but I hope even as a quick snack it will bring you a smile 🙂 xoxo
Amanda says
February 22, 2016 at 9:10 pmSounds delicious…I may have to un-heathify it. Hopefully a regular egg and milk will work…if so, we will be having this tomorrow!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:47 amHaha, why??
Min says
February 22, 2016 at 8:16 pmHow creative and simple is this!! I can totally make this even if my mornings are super crazy. I love mug cakes too so this is right up my alley! Looking forward to trying 😉 Thanks!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:47 amThanks Min! Anything in a mug is a nice warm hug for the morning!
Kristy @ Southern In Law says
February 22, 2016 at 8:12 pmThis looks absolutely delicious! I loveee quick and easy microwave recipes for busy mornings!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 23, 2016 at 2:46 amTotally!!! Yay for happy mornings!
Rachel @ Delicious Balance says
February 22, 2016 at 7:31 pmAnd I might go make this now! I feel the same way about French toast vs. waffles vs. pancakes! This is such a great option!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 7:54 pmHaha, yes! And totally nighttime snack worthy 😉
Natalie Freed says
February 22, 2016 at 7:29 pmFrench Toast has always been my favorite of the trifecta! This might be a game changer!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 7:54 pmHaha, really? Well I’m glad it takes the #1 spot for someone 😉
Letty / Letty's Kitchen says
February 22, 2016 at 7:15 pmI love mug cakes too. And French toast! Yum!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 7:21 pm2 for 1!
Linda @ Veganosity says
February 22, 2016 at 6:15 pmThis is pure genius! I wish I had thought of this when my kids were living at home.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 6:18 pmWell now just more for you 😉
Chrissa - Physical Kitchness says
February 22, 2016 at 5:47 pmMadagascar bourbon vanilla extract?! Um what?! Um YES. That sounds amazing. As does this french toast “bake”. I totally dig microwave mug/ramekin breakfasts and treats!!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 6:07 pmHaha, no, that’s just real quality vanilla extract 😛 Haha! Nothing that special!
My ramekin is my life! I would die without it! From oatmeals, to mug cakes, now french toast!
Elizabeth Shaw says
February 22, 2016 at 5:32 pmWhat a great recipe! So creative, I definitely am so excited to see these great breakfast treats this month!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 6:06 pmYes! Breakfast is the best meal of the day anyway 😉
Corina says
February 22, 2016 at 4:46 pmI have never made any form of French toast, either the traditional way or in a microwave but it always sounds delicious! I grew up without a microwave and my parents still don’t see the point of having one but I love mine for making things like porridge and the occasional mug cake!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 4:47 pmAh! You have to make French toast…both ways!!! It’s an essential breakfast experience, microwave of not!
Melissa says
February 22, 2016 at 4:01 pmI wish I would’ve seen this post this weekend – would’ve been perfect! I wanted to make a single serving of french toast for the hubby.
I’m not a huge french toast fan – I can take it or leave it. I prefer savory breakfasts (runny eggs when I’m not prego) or yogurt/granola/fruit parfaits.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 4:46 pmHaha, I’m the total opposite of you, but now you’re equipped with the right breakfast for him next time!
Erica D. says
February 22, 2016 at 3:13 pmThis is super inventive! Nice job! I hate raisins with a passion, so don’t judge me for subbing out some chocolate chips 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 4:45 pmBahahaha, it’s okay 😉 As long as you LOVE chocolate chips, there won’t be a problem 😉
The Food Hunter says
February 22, 2016 at 2:57 pmI love how easy and delicious this recipe is
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 2:59 pmThank you!
Karen Del Tatto says
February 22, 2016 at 2:48 pmWell that recipe is just genius!!
Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 2:59 pmThank you!
Lucie says
February 22, 2016 at 2:18 pmSuch a clever idea! Now I can make French toast much more often 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 2:20 pmMmmm 😉 Solutions to our biggest conundrum!
Sam @ PancakeWarriors says
February 22, 2016 at 2:02 pmLove that this is homemade. And so easy to make 🙂 Anything in a ramekin is good in my book. But you now have me craving Japanese Sweet potatoes with nut butter and cinnamon. I’m just saying!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 2:18 pmPut a potato in a ramekin then 😉 It will catch all the drippy nut butter that slides out of the potato 😉
Ellen @ My Uncommon Everyday says
February 22, 2016 at 1:12 pmLOL you got me on the “soggy bread” comment 😛 But I’ll give it a try! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 1:17 pmYou’ll like this!! It’s not “soggy”, but spoonable! Unless you drench it in syrup and sauce…which I do 😛 I do that to everything though!
The Vegan 8 says
February 22, 2016 at 12:53 pmMicrowave french toast?! Omg, what an amazing idea Rebecca! Looks sooo delicious!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says

February 22, 2016 at 12:37 pmAwwww, these little cups of french toast goodness just look too cute! Now I really want a microwave (but I know it wouldn’t be a good idea long-term.. I’m sure I’d get lazy as hell)! Looks so good, though!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 1:01 pmReally, how do you live without one :O
Deborah @ Confessions of a mother runner says

February 22, 2016 at 12:36 pmWhat a great hack- definitely need to share this with my little sister who’s a freshman in college.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 1:01 pmShe will appreciate it, I’m sure 😉
Sophia @Veggies dont bite says
February 22, 2016 at 12:22 pmOK, these are the cutest things I think I’ve ever seen! I love mini anything! Maybe it’s because I feel I can eat more? LOL But really, these are adorable and I totally want to try them with the boys. They’d totally like them!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 1:00 pmHahaha! Mini is just a cute word to begin with! I love single serve things and they would be fantastic for the little ones!!!

February 22, 2016 at 12:18 pmMicrowave doing magic again! This is a brilliant way to put that appliance to work! French toast is the member of the breakfast trifecta that I make the least too, too much work plus I don’t usually have bread around. But if I can do it in 2 minutes then I’m down for a french toast morning 🙂 A carb-filled mug begging for maple syrup…definitely winning <3
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 1:00 pmBread in a mug swimming in maple syrup sweetness 😉 Gobble <3

February 22, 2016 at 11:51 amI just published a recipe for homemade GF Cinnamon Raisin Bread, and after all those experiments to get the recipe JUST RIGHT, I have loads of slices in my freezer that I’ve been pulling out for sandwiches and “old fashioned” French Toast. Can’t wait to try it the easy way in the microwave!

Skye says
February 22, 2016 at 11:23 amI’m totally fine with “soggy” French toast! Love this, pinned and yummed!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 12:58 pmHahaha, well you know, I guess bread is always a good thing 😉
Dr. Jennifer Weinberg MD MPH | Simple Pure Whole Wellness says
February 22, 2016 at 11:10 amThis looks so easy and delicious! I love that it uses flax eggs too!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 11:11 amThanks!
Alisa @ Go Dairy Free says
February 22, 2016 at 11:01 amOh yum! I love all the flax-y goodness in this too – so perfect for a nourishing breakfast!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 11:09 amTotally! A little extra “omega” action 😉
Megan @ Skinny Fitalicious says
February 22, 2016 at 10:35 amI’m not much of a french toast person either. I would rather eat pancakes. I could get down with this simple version though!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:43 amWell I totally feel the same way 😉 Now I guess we should just make a pancake in a mug…or…well.I guess that’s just a mug cake 😉
Leah M @ love me, feed me says
February 22, 2016 at 10:27 amI have similar feelings about french toast! I never really crave it, but when I do make it I’m always so impressed haha. This sounds so easy and so delicious!!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:41 amYea! Like, I don’t appreciate it until that first fork full!
Chrystal @ Gluten-Free Palate says
February 22, 2016 at 10:25 amThis is so easy! I wanted this now 😉

Steph @ The Grateful Grazer says
February 22, 2016 at 10:16 amI don’t scoff at microwaves but we lost ours in a move and never replaced it. Now I’m kinda wishing we had one, this looks delicious! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:40 amWHAT!!!! How do you live!?
Leslie says

Laura says
February 22, 2016 at 9:59 amSuch a cool idea! A great quick breakfast to mix things up from typical oatmeal or smoothies!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:40 amRight? All the bready goodness!
Trish says
February 22, 2016 at 9:40 amThis looks SO yummy! It looks fast and easy, too!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says

Trish says
February 22, 2016 at 10:41 amOh yes! I couldn’t get by without one.
Sarah says
February 22, 2016 at 9:37 amThis reminds me of bread pudding which is one of my favs! If only I would have seen this sooner I would have made if for breakfast it looks delicious and comforting… like a hug in a bowl!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:39 amHaha, yes it is a hug in a bowl! See bread pudding…sounds wrong to me, but this does seem similar, but less…”soggy” Hahaha!
Lauren Gaskill | Making Life Sweet says
February 22, 2016 at 9:35 amQuick, simple and deliciously comforting! Definitely my kind of breakfast! 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:38 amRight on! Thanks Lauren!
Jenn says
February 22, 2016 at 9:00 amWe were without a microwave for about 3 days and I didn’t think we were going to make it. LOL! I didn’t realized how much we relied on it. This French Toast looks so good! It reminds me a bit of my apple cinnamon bread pudding! Delicious!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:37 amI know right! You don’t realize how much you use it until you don’t have one! I would die!
rachel @ Athletic Avocado says
February 22, 2016 at 8:32 amYou know I love this one! French Toast in a mug is the best way to make/eat french toast 🙂
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
February 22, 2016 at 10:37 amHaha I knew you would 😉 Appreciate the ease!
Citra Kale @Citra's HOme Diary says
