Make pan-fried French toast stuffed with a sweet cream cheese and berry filling for an indulgent breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 slices thick bread (Brioche or Challah recommended)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons butter, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in the mixed berries.
  2. Take one slice of bread and spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over one side. Place a second slice of bread on top to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining bread and filling.
  3. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg until combined.
  4. Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides briefly. Do not soak the bread.
  5. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Place the stuffed sandwiches in the hot skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and the filling is warm.
  7. Remove from the skillet and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use thick-cut brioche bread.
  • Dust the finished toast with extra powdered sugar or drizzle with maple syrup before serving.
  • If the outside browns too quickly, reduce the heat slightly to allow the center to warm through.
