This week concludes the Cookies for Breakfast September 2025 theme.
There have been a lot of hits. As in all of them.
The month started off strong with a cinnamon pop-tart, which some people missed and were sad about it.
The second week was the cornflake cookie. This one was surprising. Not only for the solid cookie but also for the scandalous past of the cornflake and breakfast cereal.
The third week was the not so surprising hit. This was a crescent roll topped with bacon and maple syrup. Everything is better with bacon, right?
This Thursday I made French toast cookies. Well, I say cookies. More like French toast baby muffins.
The best part of it was that I used stale hamburger buns. I read a couple of other recipes and decided to just wing it. I know how to make French toast but I have made toast sticks in the past and cut them up. I wanted something more special and more cohesive.
I decided to mash together two recipes that are well known to me. French toast and bread pudding. The modified bread pudding would give the little muffins more structure and the French toast basic recipe that I follow would give it the flavor.
Success!
And someone already asked me for the recipe!
October is always my favorite CTIAT month. Stay tuned for the spooky times.
