STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH FRUIT & CREAM CHEESE (BAKED)



Stuffed French Toast With Fruit & Cream Cheese (Baked) image

Came up with this as a quick and filling breakfast while I was pregnant. The whole family loves it. I've found the leftovers are a little better because the flavors have a chance to blend more. It looks like a lot but it's actually quick & easy to put together. Please follow the steps for mixing ingredients as they're listed... This prevents the "floating" of the dry ingredients and makes for a smooth & blended caramel colored egg mix. Also, I always spread the cream cheese & pie filling over the bread slices rather than pouring it on top so they end up as "sandwiches". We dish them out as sandwiches but have to eat with forks :)

  • Cut the bread into thick slices, about 1 inch thick, so that they can hold the filling.
  • Hollow out the center of the bread slices, leaving a 1/2-inch border. This will create a pocket for the filling.
  • Be generous with the filling! You can use any type of filling you like, such as cheese, ham, sausage, vegetables, or fruit.
  • Dip the filled bread slices in a mixture of eggs and milk before baking. This will help to bind the filling and prevent it from spilling out.
