Ingredients

• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 1 cup Fresh blueberries
• 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 8 slices Thick-sliced bread (e.g., brioche or challah)
• 4 Eggs
• 1 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 0 Maple syrup (optional, for serving)
• 0 Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and well combined.

Step 2

Gently fold in the fresh blueberries into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to smash the berries.

Step 3

Take one slice of bread and scoop 2-3 tablespoons of the blueberry filling onto the center. Place a second slice of bread on top and gently press the edges to seal the filling inside. Repeat with the remaining bread slices and filling to create 4 sandwiches.

Step 4

In another mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and cinnamon until fully combined. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish that can fit the sandwiches (e.g., a large baking dish).

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the surface evenly.

Step 6

Dip one stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are coated. Let any excess drip off before placing the sandwich onto the hot skillet.

Step 7

Cook the sandwich for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm while repeating with the remaining sandwiches, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve the blueberry stuffed French toast with a drizzle of maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy this indulgent treat while warm!
