Ingredients
Scale
- 1–2 slices of bread, cubed
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1–2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 tablespoon butter, melted (optional)
- Optional toppings: maple syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, fresh fruit
Instructions
- Take 1-2 slices of bread and cut them into small cubes, about 1-inch in size.
- In a microwave-safe mug, crack one large egg. Add 1/4 cup milk, 1-2 teaspoons of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk together with a fork until fully combined.
- Gently fold the bread cubes into the egg mixture, ensuring every piece is coated evenly. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes to absorb the liquid.
- Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute. Check if the egg mixture has set. If not, continue cooking in 15-second intervals until firm but not rubbery (about 1.5-2 minutes total).
- Let the mug cool for a minute. Top with maple syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, or fresh fruit for added flavor.
Notes
[‘Use day-old bread for better texture.’, ‘Avoid overcooking to prevent a rubbery texture.’, ‘Customize flavors with nutmeg, pumpkin spice, or coffee creamer.’, ‘Let the mug sit for a few minutes after microwaving for a pudding-like texture.’]
