Instructions
- Spray a 9-in by 13-in baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Slice the loaves of bread into thick slices about an inch thick. Do not cut completely through the bread. Place in the pan.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla together. Fold in the berries.
- Spread cream cheese mixture evenly between each slice of bread.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, milk, cream, ½ cup brown sugar and 3 teaspoons cinnamon. Evenly pour egg mixture over the stuffed bread.
- Let bread sit for 30 minutes to an hour to soak in some of the egg mixture.
- Preheat oven to 350°F, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar over the top of the bread and cover the stuffed french toast with foil.
- Bake for 15 minutes and remove the tinfoil. Continue to bake for an additional 30 minutes, until the custard is cooked.
- Remove and let rest for 10 minutes. Serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, and more berries if desired!
Notes
Storage: This french toast is best eaten immediately, but if you have leftovers you can store them in an airtight container and keep them in the refrigerator. The longer it is stored the soggier it will become.
