How to Make Cranberry French Toast

  1. Slice challah bread into 1-inch thick slices.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen cranberries.
  3. Gently cut a pocket into the side of each bread slice, being careful not to cut all the way through. Stuff the cream cheese cranberry mixture into the pockets.
  4. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  5. In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup of milk, and a pinch of salt.
  6. Dip each stuffed bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
  7. Place bread slices in the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy! Consider topping with powdered sugar, maple syrup, or a dollop of whipped cream.
