Blueberry Stuffed French Toast - #breakfastseries

Blueberry Stuffed French Toast

This week at IHCC, we are focusing on cooking Ellie Krieger's healthy recipes to start our new year and/or day. 

Ellie has quite a number of French Toast recipes, and I choose to make her stuffed french toast. Her recipe uses strawberry chocolate chips, but I use blueberry instead. And no chocolate chips. I'm not a big fan of chocolate, unfortunately. LOL.

Recipe adapted from Ellie Krieger's Chocolate and Strawberry Stuffed French Toast.

Ingredients:
(Serves 2)

2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
4 tablespoons cream cheese
4 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread
1/2 cup fresh blueberries, and more for garnishing
3-4 tablespoons unsalted butter


How to:

1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Set aside.

2. Spread cream cheese on the bread, 1 tablespoon per slice. Top one slice of bread with blueberries. Cover it with another piece of bread to make a "sandwich".

3. Melt butter in a frying pan over medium-low heat. Dip each "sandwich" into the egg mixture until completely moistened. Then place it on the frying pan and cook both sides until the outside is golden brown.

4. Remove the toast from the pan. Serve, garnished with blueberries.

Can't wait to dig in!
