Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Brioche bread, thick-sliced
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Butter, for greasing the pan
- optional Maple syrup (for serving)
- optional Fresh fruit (for serving, optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly onto two slices of brioche bread. Place the remaining two slices on top, creating sandwiches.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using).
Preheat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the butter to grease the surface.
Carefully dip each stuffed brioche sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly. Allow any excess mixture to drip off before transferring to the skillet.
Cook the stuffed French toast for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Remove from the skillet and repeat with the remaining sandwich if necessary.
Slice the French toast diagonally and serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your choice of toppings.
