Strawberry Cream French Toast
Andrew Norton
This reminds me of the stuffed french toast you can get at IHOP. My wife has made something similar to this and it was waaaay better than anything at IHOP. I'm not just saying that because she reads this blog either. :) Anyway, our strawberry patch is producing berries every day and I think I will be trying this delicious recipe for breakfast tomorrow.
What you need:
- 8-ounce package cream cheese
- 1 cup strawberry yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 12 slices white bread
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup cream or milk
- butter for frying
- 2 cups freshly sliced Michigan strawberries
The night before serving:
Mix cream cheese (warm a little in microwave for easier mixing) with strawberry yogurt and refrigerate overnight. Slice 2 cups fresh strawberries and let sweeten overnight.
To prepare:
Spread half of cream cheese mixture on 6 slices of white bread and top to form a sandwich. Beat eggs, milk, and vanilla. Melt butter on the griddle or skillet. Dip sandwiches in egg mixture and cook until brown. To serve, top each sandwich with the remaining cheese mixture and fresh strawberries.
