Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
Cut a baguette / loaf of bread into 1" cubes and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Add bread cubes and raisins and toss to make sure bread is fully coated with egg mixture. Let sit for at least 10 minutes to soak, tossing occasionally.
Once bread is soaked, spoon approximately 1 cup of bread mixture into each cup of a muffin tray, heaping like a muffin.
In a small bowl, melt the butter. Add the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir. Mixture will look like a thin paste. With a small spoon, drizzle topping over each French Toast Bite.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tops are springy and slightly dry.
