Rainbow Stuffed French Toast
- 1 loaf French Bread
- 4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
- 3 Tablespoons Any Flavor Fruit Spread
- 2 whole Eggs
- 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 cups Milk (I Used Skim)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/2 cups Sliced Strawberry
- 1 whole Orange, Separated Into Slices
- 1 whole Banana, Sliced
- 1 whole Kiwi, Peeled And Sliced
- 1/2 cups Blueberries
- 1/2 cups Red Grapes, Sliced
- Heat skillet or electric griddle to 325 to 350 degrees (F).
- Cut French bread into 2-3 inch wide slices. Then, with a paring knife, go back and cut halfway into each slice, in the center, creating a 'pocket' that your cream cheese mixture can be stuffed into.
- Cut up your fruit of choice. If using all six varieties, this takes less than 10 minutes.
- In a bowl, place the room temperature cream cheese and three tablespoons of fruit spread of your choice. Combine well.
- In a separate bowl, break 2 eggs; add cinnamon, milk, and vanilla combine well.
- Now, take cream cheese mixture and stuff a small amount of it into the 'pockets' of your French bread slices. Place on a baking sheet.
- When done stuffing each piece of bread, completely coat each piece in egg mixture. Make sure all sides are covered. Do all pieces before starting to fry.
- Put 2 Tablespoons (you can use less!) of butter into a hot skillet and melt completely. Add all of the bread to the skillet and cook roughly about 3-6 minutes on each side, until it reaches a nice golden brown. You want to make sure the cream cheese mixture heats through.
- When done cooking, add fruit of choice to cream cheese pocket, serve immediately with butter and syrup and extra fruit. (These are so flavorful, I didn't even use syrup!)
