  • Jam ‘n’ Cream French Toast

    Well, the post I intended to post today is not coming. I stayed up really late the night before I was headed down to my sister’s house to watch her kids – making sure I had pictures and recipes up to post throughout this week. And I just realized that the picture for the recipe I was going to post today did not save. Gotta love it when that happens. But hey – you get another breakfast recipe today – that makes 3 in a row!

    This may not look all that pretty, but it sure was delicious! This is like eating dessert instead of a meal! You can most definitely serve this filled French toast with maple syrup, but I had some strawberry syrup in the fridge, and it went perfectly with this decadent breakfast. This is a great way to start off a special (or just any!) day!!

    Jam ‘n’ Cream French Toast
    from Taste of Home Annual Recipes 2006

    serves 1

    total time: 15 minutes

    2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
    2 thick slices cinnamon-raisin bread
    2 tablespoons strawberry jam
    1 egg
    1 tablespoon milk
    1 tablespoon butter
    syrup, for serving

    Spread cream cheese on one slice of bread. Spread jam on the other slice; place jam side down over the cream cheese. In a shallow bowl, beat egg with milk. Dip both sides of bread into the egg.

    In a skillet, melt butter; cook bread for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Serve with syrup, if desired.

    Sorry about that but am happy to have this recipe.

    Shamefully I've never made my children french toast. :( Which is dumb seeing as I grew up with my Dad making it for me all the time. Your vamped up version looks good, too!

    I'm not minding the breakfast recipes, I would rather exert my strength at cooking in the morning, so this gets me a free afternoon to myself, love it!
    This sounds interesting with the raisin toast, will have to try it!

    Well, it may not have been your first choice for a posting, Deborah, but it sure is a delicious alternate. I think I'd called it a grilled cream cheese sandwich! YUM.
