Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups cubed brioche or challah bread (about 6 oz)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter, for the pan
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar, for coating
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, for coating

Method
 

  1. Whisk eggs, milk, 2 tbsp sugar, vanilla, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and salt. Fold in bread and soak 5 minutes.
  2. Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 12-cup muffin tin. Divide mixture among cups, press gently. Bake 20 to 22 minutes until golden and set.
  3. Stir 1/4 cup sugar with 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
  4. Run a knife around each muffin, lift from tin, and roll in cinnamon sugar while warm. Serve immediately.

Notes

If you want to assemble the night before, soak the bread, cover the bowl, and refrigerate. In the morning, portion into the buttered tin and bake, adding 2 to 3 minutes. Generously buttering the muffin cups helps them release cleanly.
