Ingredients

1 cup whole milk
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoon granulated sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp kosher sea salt
6 cup bread dried & cubed, (white bread, Challah bread, Brioche, croissants or cinnamon raisin)

For the Topping

1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup unsalted butter

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
Add the cubed bread to the mixture and toss gently to combine. Scoop ⅓ cup of the mixture into each well.
Meanwhile, to make the topping, in a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, break the butter into small pea-size clumps. Sprinkle the streusel mixture over the tops of the muffins.
Place the muffin pan in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes before removing and serving.
