Strawberry Stuffed French Toast is a lovely breakfast treat that features golden-brown, fluffy slices of French toast filled with a sweet and creamy strawberry mixture. Topped with a condensed milk and strawberries slices.
Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth, using hand mixer. Using hand mixer, whisk in the sliced strawberries and set aside.
Prepare the French Toast Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Assemble the French Toast: Take a slice of bread and spread a generous amount of the cream cheese filling on one side. Top it with another slice of bread to create a sandwich. Repeat this process with the remaining slices.
Dip the Sandwiches: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter or oil to coat the pan. Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated.
Cook the French Toast: Place the dipped sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
Serve: Cut the stuffed French Toast in half and serve warm with condensed milk and extra strawberries. Enjoy with some delicious coffee or tea!

Notes
Use Quality Ingredients: Choose fresh, ripe strawberries and high-quality cream cheese for the best flavor. You can also use mascarpone for a richer filling.
Soften the Cream Cheese: Make sure your cream cheese is softened at room temperature before mixing. This will help you achieve a smooth filling without lumps.
Add Zest: For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a bit of lemon zest or orange zest to the cream cheese mixture. It complements the strawberries nicely.
Choose the Right Bread: Brioche, challah, or Texas toast work great for French toast because they have a nice, soft texture and absorb the egg mixture well.
Don’t Rush the Cooking: Cook the sandwiches over medium heat to ensure they get golden brown without burning. Patience here helps achieve that perfect crispy exterior.These tips should help you create a delicious strawberry French toast experience! Enjoy your cooking!
