This Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast recipe is one you will be so glad you tried! It’s a fun twist on your typical french toast.
Brunch
I started a tradition years ago to host a Christmas brunch instead of a Christmas dinner and serve these amazing things. With Thanksgiving and Christmas so close together, I wanted to do something different and this recipe has become a hit with everyone in my family.
But trust me when I say you can make these any time. It’s not just for the holidays.
Texas Toast
Texas Toast is a thick toast that you need for this recipe. You can find it at any grocery store.
Griddle
My whole family loves it and we look forward to it every year. I do recommend using an electric griddle so you can make more than one at a time. This is the one I use.
Top with Fruit
Top it with fresh or frozen strawberries. Use the juice from the frozen strawberries in place of syrup. If you prefer fresh strawberries, you can use strawberry syrup. Top with whipped cream and you are set.
