After seeing this on Pinterest for months now it was time to finally give it a try- My Way! This was a easy- quick way to jazz up plain french toast and include a dose of your favorite fruit at the same time 🙂 Plus it makes you feel all gourmet and stuff. So basically for my easy version of this you first chop some strawberries up and sprinkle sugar on them and let them sit for a bit while you get everything else ready.
Mix your strawberries with 1 8oz block of cream cheese until as smooth or chunky as you want. Make your egg mixture by using 1 egg per person, 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla, and just enough milk to blend the consistency of eggs. For our family I did 6 eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla, and about 2 cups of milk.
Now take one slice of bread and spread some of the cream cheese mixture on it, place another slice on top so you now have a cream cheese sandwich. Coat each sandwich in the egg mixture and then grill them like you would normal French toast. Serve with syrup, powdered sugar, or whatever else you enjoy.
This is a great recipe to make for a holiday morning!
