Optional toppings like fresh fruit, chocolate chips, and maple syrup add extra charm to this versatile and comforting dish.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 slices of thick bread (brioche or challah recommended)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Butter or oil for cooking (preferably butter)

Optional Add-ons

  • Fresh fruit (strawberries or blueberries)
  • Chocolate chips
  • Maple syrup or honey
  • Nuts (pecans or walnuts)
  • Whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a fork or mixer to blend until smooth and spreadable, ensuring a creamy texture without being runny.
  2. Assemble the French Toast: Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture onto one side of each bread slice. Place another slice of bread on top to create a sandwich. Press gently to secure the filling inside. Repeat for all slices.
  3. Dip the Bread: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to create the custard mixture. Dip each stuffed sandwich into this mixture, coating both sides evenly. Allow excess custard to drip off before cooking.
  4. Cook the Stuffed French Toast: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter or oil. Once hot, place the stuffed sandwiches onto the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan and cook in batches if necessary.

Notes

  • Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for smooth mixing.
  • Do not soak the bread too long to avoid sogginess.
  • For extra flavor, add lemon zest to the filling or a splash of orange juice to the egg custard.
  • Use thick bread like brioche or challah for best texture.
  • Keep cooked French toast warm in a low oven if cooking in batches.
  • Optional toppings like berries, nuts, whipped cream, and syrup add to the experience.
