Strawberry Cream Cheese French Toast


Filling:
  • 1 c. sliced fresh strawberries
  • 2 T. sugar
  • 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
For the toast:
  • Bread
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 c. milk
  • 2 T. melted butter
  • 1 t. vanilla
  • 1/4 c. all purpose flour
  • 1/4 t. ground cinnamon
  •  1/4 t. salt
To make the filling, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar in medium sized bowl.  Mix well and set aside to macerate for about 15 minutes.  Stir in the cream cheese until well blended.
In a shallow baking dish or pie plate, whisk together the egg and milk.  Whisk in the melted butter and vanilla.  Stir in the flour, cinnamon and salt; whisk until smooth.  Spread cream cheese mixture between two pieces of bread like you are making a sandwich.  Dip the sandwich into the egg mixture completely coating both sides.  Place onto an already warmed skillet and cook until golden brown on each side. Serve with maple syrup and powdered sugar.
