Orange Blueberry Fruffins {French Toast Muffins}
Ingredients
- For Blueberry Fruffins
- six eggs
- four heaping cups of bread cut or torn into small pieces
- 1/3 cup orange juice
- 1/3 cup half and half I used fat free
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries not thawed
- For Orange Glaze
- 1 tbsp orange juice
- 1 tbsp whole milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and liberally spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Whisk the eggs, juice, half and half, and vanilla together until combined in a large bowl.
- Pour in the bread and mix it around to allow it to soak up the eggs.
- Gently add the blueberries. You want to have them evenly distributed throughout the bread/egg mixture, but you don't want to mix so much that your bread turns blue.
- Fill the muffin cups with the mixture.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Mine were done after 18 minutes.
- Let them sit in the pan for 15 minutes before you attempt to pull them out. If you take them out too soon, they will fall apart.
- Top with orange glaze and enjoy.
- To make the orange glaze, whisk together the orange juice, whole milk, and powdered sugar.
- If you are making the day ahead, store in the refrigerator, and bring to room temperature before attempting to drizzle.

I’d forgotten about your Fruffins! This is perfect, I’m making some next week for the teachers and now I have a good source. And oh, the speed traps. Hate them!

Found this on pinterest. Looks awesome. I am not usually in a rush in the morning but I do have a kiddo that likes to eat food with his hands. AND berries are definately in season now. Can’t wait to try this cool idea… french toast meets muffin. The glaze sounds delightful. Perfect combo for blueberries. Great blog 🙂

Gavin sounds a lot like my hubby. He ALWAYS tells me to slow down and how to drive. I men, who actually goes the speed limit these days? I ain’t got time for that!
LOVE the fruffins!! I’ll need to try these now that I have lazy weekends in my future. 🙂

Ain’t nobody got time for that!
Laura says
These look great! Have you ever tried freezing them? I am looking to expand my freezer breakfast recipe list.
Lisa Longley says
I haven’t! But I have been thinking a ton lately about things that I can make a lot of (muffins, handpies, etc) that I can make ahead and then warm up in the toaster oven. Let me know if you try it with these and how it goes!

Jason says
These were awesome. I didn’t have half and half so substituted butter and milk. Also, used stevia for the glaze.
Lisa Longley says
So glad to hear you liked them Jason!
Michelle says
