Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

1 loaf French bread
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 eggs
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup sliced strawberries

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Bread
Begin by slicing the French bread into 12 pieces, each about 2 inches thick. Carefully cut a pocket into each slice, ensuring you don’t slice all the way through. This pocket will hold the delicious cheesecake filling.

Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. This luscious filling will add a delightful sweetness to your French toast.

Step 3: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and cinnamon. This mixture will be used to coat the bread slices, giving them a rich, custard-like texture when cooked.

Step 4: Assemble the French Toast
Heat a grill pan over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray. Take each slice of bread and fill the pocket with about half a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture and 2-3 slices of strawberry. Once filled, dunk each slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated.

Step 5: Cook the French Toast
Place the coated bread slices on the hot grill pan. Allow them to brown for 2-4 minutes on one side before flipping to brown the other side. Once both sides are beautifully golden, remove from the pan and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining slices.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Serve your Strawberry Cheesecake French Toast warm, drizzled with maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness. The combination of creamy filling, juicy strawberries, and crisp French toast is simply irresistible.

Conclusion:
Strawberry Cheesecake French Toast is more than just a breakfast dish—it’s an experience. With its decadent flavors and delightful textures, it’s perfect for any occasion that calls for something special. Plus, with just 20 minutes from start to finish, it’s an easy way to bring a touch of elegance to your morning routine. So go ahead, treat yourself and your loved ones to this heavenly breakfast creation!
