Berry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast & Berry Syrup

April 25, 2014 by Natalie

Berry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast Main

I’m not usually a fan of sweet breakfasts. We’re a lot more carnivorous around here. (Bring on the bacon!) But for occasions like Mother’s Day, this decadent recipe makes the day a little more special!
 
We first woke up to this indulgent breakfast in an unusual setting – we were on a family raft trip on the Salmon River in the middle of nowhere-Idaho. Our river guides, Guy (a retired Olympic Volleyball coach) and Mowgli (don’t remember his real name but he looked just like the boy in “Jungle Book”-loin cloth thing and all) prepared this fantastic dish for us. (Yes, Mowgli could cook AND swing from trees and dive off cliffs.)
 
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 loaf French bread
8 ounces cream cheese
1 cup mixed berries
 
Beat together eggs, milk, and vanilla. Transfer to a pie plate.
 
Slice French bread loaf horizontally.
 
French Toast 1

Mix softened cream cheese with berries. Spread berry/cream cheese mixture on one side of the French bread.
 
French Toast 2

Place bread top on the berry/cream cheese mixture so it looks like a long sandwich. Make vertical cuts about every 1-2 inches through the entire loaf to make smaller sandwiches. (You may want to cut off the ends first.)
 
French Toast 3

Preheat a nonstick pan or skillet to medium heat. Add a little butter to your pan if needed. (Or a lot if you are Paula Deen.)
 
Dip the slices in the egg mixture for a few seconds on each side. Cook the sandwiches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Serve immediately with this BERRY SYRUP.
 
BERRY SYRUP:

3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 cup water
1 1/2 cups frozen mixed berries
 
Mix sugar, cornstarch and water in a pan. Add the berries and bring to a boil. Stir until the syrup begins to thicken. Serve on top of fancy French toast.

So pass these recipes along to your husband and sleep in. You may wake up to a marvelous Mother’s Day brunch!
