Ingredients
- King's Hawaiian bread
- Cream cheese
- Eggs
- Milk
- Cinnamon
- Vanilla extract
- Maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare the cream cheese filling by softening cream cheese at room temperature and mixing it until smooth and creamy.
- Slice the King's Hawaiian bread into thick slices, approximately 1-
- 5 inches thick. Create a pocket in each slice by carefully cutting a slit horizontally, being careful not to cut completely through the bread.
- Fill each bread pocket with a generous amount of cream cheese, spreading it evenly inside the pocket. Press the edges gently to seal the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Dip each cream cheese-stuffed bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are thoroughly coated but not soggy.
- Place the coated bread slices onto the heated skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from heat and transfer to serving plates. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
- Serve hot with warm maple syrup drizzled over the top, and optionally garnish with fresh berries or whipped cream.
Tips
- • Make sure to soften the cream cheese to room temperature for a smooth and creamy filling. • Don't overfill the bread pockets, as this can cause them to burst open during cooking. • Use a gentle touch when pressing the edges of the bread to seal the filling, to avoid tearing the bread. • Adjust the heat of your skillet or griddle as needed to prevent burning, and cook the French toast until it's golden brown and crispy. • Experiment with different toppings, such as fresh fruits, whipped cream, or even chopped nuts, to add your personal touch to this recipe.
