Cream Cheese Strawberry French Toast Muffins

These Cream Cheese Strawberry French Toast Muffins are stuffed with fresh strawberries and cream cheese. Fun to make and even more fun to eat! This breakfast muffin recipe is perfect for your weekend brunch.

French toast is classic. I don’t know a single person who doesn’t enjoy basic French toast. Because French toast is comfort food at its finest.

But I like to play with different shapes and sizes of bread to make it more interesting, too. Maybe you remember my French Toast Churro Bites. I cut bread with heart shape cookie cutter to make fun Valentine’s Cupid approved breakfast.

Also, I can’t resist delicious Stuffed French Toast.  French Toast Roll Ups are my favorite, especially with Nutella, like these Nutella French Toast Roll Ups. I like to add cream cheese and berries in my French Toast, too. If you like it too, then check these “ Imperfectly Perfect” Blueberry French Toast Roll Ups.
