Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Thick bread slices (Brioche or Challah recommended)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Fresh fruit (berries, banana slices, etc.)
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Optional garnish: powdered sugar
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Lay the bread slices on a flat surface. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on four of the slices, leaving a slight border around the edges. Top with the remaining slices to create sandwiches.
In a shallow dish or wide bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg until fully combined.
Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated but not overly saturated.
In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the stuffed bread into the skillet.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Be careful when flipping to avoid losing the filling.
Serve warm, topped with fresh fruits and a drizzle of maple syrup. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch.
