Ingredients for Banana Strawberry And Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast

  • French Bread
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry jam
  • Fresh blueberries, for garnish
  • Egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Vanilla
  • Strawberry
  • Fresh Strawberries
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed

How to Make Banana Strawberry And Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast

  1. In a medium bowl, gently combine the sliced strawberries, mashed banana, softened cream cheese, and strawberry jam until well mixed.
  2. Cut the bread slices in half, creating 12 pieces. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each bread slice, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom crust.
  3. Fill each bread pocket generously with the strawberry banana cream cheese mixture.
  4. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk.
  5. Dip each stuffed bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
  6. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  7. Carefully place the stuffed French toast slices in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
  8. While the French toast is cooking, prepare the strawberry sauce: In a blender, combine 2 cups of frozen strawberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/4 cup water. Blend until smooth and thick.
  9. Stack the cooked French toast in a glass dish and keep warm in a low oven (200°F) until all servings are ready.
  10. To serve, place a piece of French toast on a plate.
  11. Drizzle generously with the strawberry sauce.
  12. Dust with confectioners' sugar and garnish with fresh blueberries.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
