Summer Berry Stuffed French Toast

  • Author: Dana

Description

A decadent mix of lightly sweetened cream cheese, fluffy brioche bread, and fresh summer berries make the best breakfast or brunch menu item!


Ingredients

1 loaf Brioche Bread (commonly found in the bakery section of the grocery store, not the bread isle)

8 ounces cream cheese

1/4 cup + 1 Tablespoon confectioners sugar

4 eggs

1/3 cup milk

2 Tablespoons brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I LOVE Watkins Vanilla Extract)

1-2 cups of Sliced Strawberries, Blueberries, and Raspberries

4-5 Tablespoons butter (for cooking)


Instructions

  1. Slice Brioche Bread with a serrated knife. Cut each slice diagonally to make two triangles. Set aside.
  2. Place 8 ounces cream cheese in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in microwave in 20 second increments, stirring in between, until cream cheese is smooth and spreadable. Add confectioners sugar and stir until incorporated.
  3. In a separate bowl mix 4 eggs, 1/3 cup milk, 2 Tablespoons brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Line a large tray or plate with brioche triangles. Lightly spread cream cheese mixture onto each piece. Top with fresh berries and sandwich two pieces together.
  5. Preheat you griddle or cast iron skillet. Melt butter when heated, dip each piece into egg/milk mixture when ready to cook and cook over medium heat until each side is golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side). Your hands will get messy when dipping so make sure you have some paper towels on stand by!
  6. Serve with extra berries, powdered sugar, and maple syrup.
