Mother Daughter Breakfast {Recipe: Strawberry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast for 2}

This recipe is for my daughter, it's one of her favorite ways to have French toast. She and I are the only ones in the family that like French toast this way, so it's perfect just for us!

Strawberry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast for 2

4 slices sandwich bread (if larger bread is used, this recipe would only make 1 serving)

4 tablespoons strawberry cream cheese spread

1 egg

1/4 cup milk

2 teaspoons maple syrup

pinch of salt

Powdered sugar

Fresh strawberries

Spread 2 slices of bread with 2 tablespoons cream cheese each (using frozen bread makes it easier to spread the cream cheese, especially if using a light white bread as shown), top with remaining two slices of bread and lightly press together; set aside. In a shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk together egg, milk, maple syrup and salt. Heat about a tablespoon of butter or cooking oil  a skillet or grill pan over medium-low heat. Dip cream cheese filled bread (if frozen bread, it should be thawed or mostly thawed) into the egg mixture, flip, making sure the bread is well coated with egg mixture. Place prepared bread in heated skillet or grill pan and cook until nicely browned, flip, and cook other side the same.  Dust with powder sugar and top with sliced fresh strawberries. Serve with warmed maple syrup.
