Ingredients
- 8 slices Whole grain bread
- 4 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries, diced
- 4 Eggs
- 1.5 cups Low-fat milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)
- 0 Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat cream cheese and diced strawberries until well combined to create the filling.
Step 3
Lay out 4 slices of bread and spread the cream cheese and strawberry mixture evenly across each slice. Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread to create 4 sandwiches.
Step 4
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, low-fat milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and honey until smooth.
Step 5
Place the sandwiches in the prepared baking dish in a single layer. Carefully pour the egg mixture evenly over the sandwiches, ensuring all the bread is coated and soaking up the mixture.
Step 6
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Step 7
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the French toast is puffed and golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy this low-fat version of baked stuffed French toast!
