Stuffed French Toast




Wow...what could be better then Stuffed French Toast? Image your possibilities! Depending on what you happen to be craving at the moment...Nutella and bananas, cream cheese and blueberries, cream cheese and your favorite jam, or like I did this morning honey nut cream cheese. I don't like to use a large french loaf for my french toast because it seems to never soak up the egg as good as plain ol' sandwich bread. I always use a good nutty whole wheat bread though.


Stuffed French Toast


8 slices of 12 grain whole wheat sandwich bread
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
Your favorite cream cheese (2-3 tablespoons per 2 slices of bread)
Your favorite fruit or jam
Butter for skillet


Heat a skillet over medium high heat and grease pan with butter.
Whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.
On one piece of bread, spead 2-3 tablespoons of cream cheese all the way to the edges of bread so you get a good seal when you dunk in the egg mixture. Add desired fruit or jam. Sandwich in cream cheese and fruit with another peice of bread.
Dip bread into egg mixture to throughly coat both sides of bread. Repeat for all for sandwiches.
When the butter on your skillet has slightly browned, add French Toast sandwiches to skillet and fry on each side about 2-3 minutes until each side is a nice deep golden brown.
Serve with your favorite syrup!
Enjoy!
