Makes 3 pieces of French Toast

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together softened cream cheese, powered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla in a bowl. Pour into a shallow dish to dip bread in.
  3. Spread about 1 spoonful of cream cheese mixture on one side of a piece of bread. Sprinkle desired amount blueberries on top of the cream cheese mixture. Top with another piece of bread to make a sandwich. Repeat with remaining pieces of bread.
  4. Melt butter in a pan over medium high heat.
  5. Dip the sandwich into the egg mixture, covering both sides.
  6. Place the sandwich in the pan and cook for about 3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and repeat on the other side. Remove and serve immediately.
  7. Sprinkle with additional berries and powdered sugar and serve with  syrup.

Tip: add DeGrandchamp Farms blueberry fruit topping for extra berry flavor!
