Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.
  3. Gently fold in the cubed bread, ensuring each piece is soaked in the custard mixture for about 5 minutes.
  4. Divide the soaked bread mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups, pressing down lightly in each cup.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and set in the center.
  6. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl for the topping.
  7. After baking, brush the muffins with melted butter to add richness.
  8. Sprinkle the warm muffins with the cinnamon sugar topping.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
