Stuffed French Toast
Ingredients
- Thick slices of Brioche, Challah, or French Bread
- 8 oz Cream Cheese (1 pkg), softened
- 1/4 cup Sour Cream
- 3/4 cup Powdered Sugar, plus more for topping
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract, divided

- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3 Eggs
- 1 1/2 cup Milk
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- Maple syrup for topping (optional)
- 8 Bacon slices
Instructions
- Wash and clean the strawberries. Cut the tops off and slice them in half. Sprinkle granulated sugar over the strawberries to create a syrup. Cover with Saran Wrap and refrigerate for about an hour.
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix on low speed to avoid powdered sugar mess. Gradually increase speed until well combined. Set aside.
- Cook bacon and strain the fat to remove impurities.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, and ground cinnamon.
- Cut thick slices of Brioche, Challah, or French Bread.
- Heat a pan and add butter. Dip each slice of bread in the egg mixture, making sure it's well-coated. Cook each side until golden brown.
- Take a slice of cooked bread, spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture. Add a little bacon and some of the macerated strawberries. Top with another slice of bread to create a sandwich.
- Optional: Drizzle with maple syrup and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy your delicious Stuffed French Toast!
