Blueberry Stuffed French Toast has an ultra rich cream cheese and blueberry preserve filling. It’s an extra special treat for breakfast or brunch. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve with fresh blueberries and you have an incredible twist on French toast. And it’s really not that much more difficult than making regular French toast, but has so much more flavor. Ingredients Needed For Blueberry Stuffed French Toast Eggs Milk– use whole milk or 2% milk or you can use a milk substitute. Vanilla Extract– adds flavor. In addition you can add a small amount of almond extract too for flavor. Cream Cheese– be sure to soften it. I use full-fat cream cheese, but reduced fat can be used. Sugar– to sweeten the cream cheese a little. Brioche Bread– a hearty white bread can be used instead. Texas Toast works well. Be sure the bread you use is at least a little stale. Fresh bread does not work well for French toast. Blueberry Preserves– or blueberry jam. Cinnamon Butter– I like to cook my French toast in butter, but you can use oil instead.

Stuff the bread. Mix cream cheese with sugar and spread on half the bread slices along with blueberry preserves. Top with remaining bread slices to make sandwiches. Dip both sides in egg wash. Cook the French toast until golden on both sides and the middle is warm. How To Serve I like to serve this fresh French toast with fresh blueberries and maple syrup. You could also add a little whipped cream on top or dust with powdered sugar. Recipe Tips Use stale bread. Fresh bread is too soft and moist and will fall apart when soaked in the egg mixture. I like to take the bread out of the bag and set the slices out on the counter at least 30 minutes beforehand so that they dry out a little more. Watch the heat. You don’t want the skillet or griddle to get too hot or the outside will brown before the inside is warm. If not eating right away, keep warm in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve. Can I Use Whipped Cream Cheese? Yes! Whipped cream cheese can be used in place of regular cream cheese and is actually easier to spread.
