  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Filling

  • 8 ounces whipped cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ¼ cup strawberries, diced (plus more for serving)

French Toast

  • 12 slices brioche bread (one loaf)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the whipped cream cheese, honey, and diced strawberries. Mix well until smooth and set aside to allow flavors to meld.
  2. Make the egg mixture: In a large shallow bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  3. Assemble the stuffed French toast: Spread the prepared cream cheese and strawberry mixture evenly on 6 slices of brioche bread. Top each with the remaining 6 slices to form sandwiches, pressing edges gently to seal.
  4. Heat the skillet: Place a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and add ½ tablespoon of butter to melt and coat the surface.
  5. Dip and cook: Dip each stuffed brioche sandwich into the egg and milk mixture, dredging thoroughly on both sides to ensure a good coating. Transfer immediately to the hot skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges turn a golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes. Repeat this process for all sandwiches, adding more butter as needed.
  6. Serve: Remove from heat and serve the stuffed French toast topped with extra diced strawberries, maple syrup, and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy while warm for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use brioche bread for best results as it is rich and holds the filling well.
  • Make sure to dip the stuffed sandwiches immediately before cooking to prevent the bread from getting soggy.
  • Adjust the butter amount to prevent sticking and achieve a golden crust.
  • Serve with additional fresh fruit or syrup to enhance sweetness.
  • For a lighter option, use low-fat cream cheese and milk.
