How to Make French Toast Mug

Step 1: Gather and prepare all ingredients.

Step 2: Whisk together the low calorie sweetener, salt, ground cinnamon, egg, milk and vanilla in the mug until thoroughly mixed. Add the bread cubes and push them down into the liquid. Let mug stand for at least 15 minutes, allowing the liquid to be absorbed by the bread. (Press bread down as necessary to ensure equal absorption.)

After resting at least 15 minutes, ready to cook the French toast

Step 3: Microwave on High Power to 1-1/2 minutes, then check for firmness and remaining liquid. Cook in additional 30 second increments on High until all liquid has been absorbed and bread is firm.

Step 4: French toast will be extremely hot, so you may want to let it rest for a minute or two after cooking.

Step 5: Enjoy directly from the mug, or removed to a plate, and top with your favorite toppings, if desired.
