    This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Glutino® and Udi’s® for Cinnamon French Toast Muffins. The opinions and text are all mine.  

    A couple of months ago I had lunch with a friend from high school who is also a blogger at Celiac Mama.  She shared her adventures of being a mom to a toddler with celiac.  It was a really eye-opening lunch.  My previous experience with gluten sensitivity had been with a couple of friends who were all diagnosed as adults.

    I learned that some non-food items, like play dough, have gluten.  And that hand sanitizer does not remove gluten from your hands.  And that people with celiac or gluten sensitivity could be affected by accident with cross-contamination.

    I walked away with three big lessons.

    • First, a new awareness that when I entertain or provide snacks at a playdate, especially with kids, it is so important to know if anyone has any food restrictions. Since my daughter does not have any I rarely thought about it before.
    • Second, I have an even greater love of blogging. We are able to share such great resources to help solve problems that have worked for us.
    • And third, an appreciation for my friend and all families who struggle with food allergies. It is a constant struggle to maintain a gluten-free lifestyle.

    The part that I will never forget is my friend sharing that the day after a birthday party they have a “say yes day” where they get in the kitchen together and try to create any food that was at the party that she could not eat.  While she always calls the host to find out what food will be served so she can try and bring similar items for her daughter, sometimes there are other things that include gluten that her daughter still cannot eat.

    When the opportunity to work with Udi’s and Glutino came up, I jumped at the chance.  I channeled my friend from Celiac Mama and thought if I could not eat gluten, what would be one of the things I would miss the most?  All my favorite breakfast foods came to mind.  A gluten-free lifestyle would be hard to stick to, but products like these help make it easier.  The second our daughter got home from school, she immediately asked me what I was making because it smelled so good.  These Cinnamon French Toast Muffins are so amazing. french toast, gluten free breakfast, gluten free bread, cinnamon french toast, french toast muffins

    How to Make Cinnamon French Toast Muffins

    Spray muffin tin.

    Combine bread, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in a bowl until the bread is fully coated with the mixture.

    Scoop bread/egg mixture into the muffin tin.

    Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. I personally try to  prep it the night before so they can soak overnight.

    Preheat oven to 350 F and make the topping by combining butter, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon.

    Sprinkle the topping over the top of each of the muffins.

    Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. french toast, gluten free breakfast, gluten free bread, cinnamon french toast, french toast muffins

      It's tricky eating gluten free but after a few weeks you can certainly get used to such a life style.

      Made this today for Christmas and it was sooo yummy. I'm the only gluten free one, so we cut this recipe down to 1/4 of the recipe and it made 7 muffins! I ate some and froze the rest.
      For the topping, we just mixed butter and brown sugar to make caramel like Monkey bread!
      Thank you for this recipe!
