Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the fruit loop French toast.
Prepare the Muffin Tin

Coat the Bread
Dip each piece of bread into the egg mixture until fully coated, allowing excess to drip off.

Place the coated bread pieces into each muffin tin cup, packing them tightly.
Add Fruit Loops
Sprinkle a generous amount of Fruit Loops over the top of the bread in each muffin cup.
Bake in the Oven
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes until the French toast is golden brown.

Once baked, allow the muffin tin to cool slightly before removing the fruit loop French toast. Serve warm.
