Ingredients

• 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 3 tbsp Powdered sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Milk
• 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 tsp Salt
• 6 slices Thick-cut bread (such as brioche or challah)
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter, for cooking
• 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 cup Whipped cream
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and salt to create the custard mixture.

Step 3

Take each slice of bread and make a pocket by cutting a horizontal slit along one edge, making sure not to cut all the way through. Gently stuff each pocket with about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the surface.

Step 5

Dip each stuffed bread slice into the custard mixture, making sure to coat both sides evenly without oversoaking.

Step 6

Place the dipped bread slices onto the hot skillet or griddle. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Add the remaining butter as needed for subsequent batches.

Step 7

Once cooked, transfer the French toast to serving plates. Top with fresh strawberry slices, a generous dollop of whipped cream, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast!
