This decadent raspberry cream cheese French toast is a delightful twist on a classic breakfast dish, featuring sweet raspberry jam and creamy cheese between slices of golden-brown bread.
Ingredients
8 slices slices of bread
8 oz cream cheese
4 tbsp raspberry jam
3 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 tsp almond extract
2 tbsp butter
Method
Begin by assembling all the ingredients you'll need for this dish.
Take four slices of your preferred bread and spread a generous amount of softened cream cheese on them. On four other slices, spread a layer of sweet raspberry jam.
Carefully press the cream cheese-topped slices onto the jam-covered slices to form tasty sandwiches.
In a medium shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a splash of almond extract until the mixture is well blended.
Heat a large skillet on medium-high and add a pat of butter to melt. Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, making sure they are fully coated.
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2 to 4 minutes on each side until they achieve a lovely golden brown color.
Once cooked, take them out of the skillet and serve warm, savoring the delightful combination of flavors!
