This is a nice change from ordinary French toast. I make this more than the standard recipe. Although this is my family's favorite version, it is very versatile. You can substitute peanut butter for the cream cheese, use different jams or preserves, different extracts or spices - the options are practically limitless! Serve with maple syrup and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

STUFFED FRENCH TOAST



Stuffed French Toast image

This recipe is delicious and perfect for a weekend brunch. It can easily be prepared in advance and refrigerated until serving time, just give each piece a little extra time to heat through in the frying pan.

Provided by S. Merrill

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (8 ounce) package neufchatel cheese, softened
1 cup apricot jam
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
1 loaf sweet French bread
4 eggs
1 cup whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup orange juice

Steps:

  • In a small bowl beat together the cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of the apricot jam, and the 1 teaspoon of vanilla until light and fluffy. Stir in the pecans and set aside.
  • Cut the bread into ten to twelve 1 1/2-inch-thick slices; cut a pocket in the top of each. Fill the pocket with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture.
  • Combine the remaining apricot jam and orange juice in a small saucepan. Warm over low heat, whisking as jam melts so the mixture is a smooth syrup.
  • Beat together eggs, whipping cream, cinnamon and the 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat, or use a griddle, if preferred. Using tongs, dip filled bread slices in the egg mixture, being careful not to squeeze out the filling. Cook in lightly greased pan for about 2 minutes per side or until lightly brown. Keep warm in a 300 degree oven while cooking remaining slices.
  • To serve, drizzle warm syrup over the hot French toast.
  • Tip: For lower fat, use 1 cup refrigerated egg product in place of whole eggs and 1% milk instead of whipping cream.
