French toast in and of itself is a pretty perfect breakfast dish. But when you take two slices and stuff them with fresh strawberries and a sweet cream cheese filling? Well, you just take it to a whole new level of delicious. It’s the perfect way to kick off a lazy weekend morning.

Plus, the recipe itself is really simple! You just need to make your French toast “sandwich” with two slices of bread and then coat it in your egg mixture and fry it up like normal. It comes together in a second and is the perfect recipe to scale up or down depending on how many people you’re serving.

 

Ingredients (for one sandwich):

2 sliced wheat bread

5 strawberries, sliced

½ oz cream cheese

1 egg white

1 tbs. milk

¼ tsp vanilla extract

 

Directions:

In a shallow bowl, add egg white, milk and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Set a side.

On one slice of bread add your cream cheese and top with strawberries. Add other slice of bread to the top.

Carefully dip your sandwich into the egg white mixture, than carefully turn the sandwich over to cover the other side with the egg white mixture.

Place sandwich in a skillet and cook until bottom is lightly brown, than carefully flip the sandwich and cook until bottom is lightly brown.

Cut in a diagonal, top with powdered sugar and maple syrup. Eat and Enjoy!
