I love stuffed french toast.

I love every stuffed french toast recipe I’ve ever had, actually, but especially the ones stuffed with cream cheese.

When we were at the shore this past August, we visited The Blue Plate Dinner in Lewes, Delaware and the IHOP in Rehoboth, Delaware, and I ate stuffed french toast in both places. They were sweet, creamy, and wonderful.

My Mom’s French Toast Casserole is a sort of stuffed french toast, but it has to be made the night before and left to soak for 12 hours. That was not an option for us when we got out of bed at 8:48 in the morning. We hadn’t planned ahead, we were all hungry, and we wanted something sweet and luscious. Joe whipped up this stuffed french toast, and it was tremendously good.

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened (we use the lighter stuff, neufchatel)
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 8 slices bread we use light whole wheat bread
  • 1 cup raspberries or 4 tablespoons of your jam
  • 4 eggs
  • 6 tablespoons milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2/3 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
 

  • Using a mixer on medium speed, beat together the cream cheese and sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add heavy cream and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture on four of the slices of bread and sprinkle generously with the raspberries. Press berries down into the cream cheese mixture as much as possible, and spread a bit more cream cheese on top. This will seal the sandwhich shut when you put the other piece of bread on top. If using jam, spread it on the other four slices of bread and skip the top layer of cream cheese. (It's much less messy if you don't spread cream cheese and jam the whole way to the edges.)
  • Put the bread together to form four cream cheese and fruit/jam sandwiches. Cut the sandwiches in half to make eight triangles, and set aside.
  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and Cinnamon Plus spice blend in a flat-bottomed bowl or pie plate. Set aside.
  • Melt a little butter (or whatever you like to use) on a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • While the griddle or skillet is heating, allow each sandwich to sit in the egg mixture until it is totally soaked.
  • Transfer the soaked sandwich to the hot griddle and cook until browned. Flip it over, and cook until browned.
  • Garnish with more jam, fresh fruit, or your favorite syrup.

    Yum, we like to have french toast for dinner sometimes. If you happen to be in Nevada there is a place called Blueberry Hill ( if it is still open?) they have the best stuffed french toast I have ever consumed!
