Somehow I have never made a mug “cake” until today, but I have a feeling it won’t be my last! I’ve been mostly eating the frittata and potato “bagels” for breakfast this week, but this morning I was craving something different. I wanted something quick and a little sweet, and a few minutes later this super easy chunky monkey french toast in a mug was born.
Single serve, simple ingredients, no clean up, ready in less than 5 minutes!
- Sourdough (or desired bread)
- Milk of choice
- Maple syrup
- Cinnamon
- Optional (but not really optional): banana slices, mini chocolate chips, nut/seed butter
