Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup mashed fresh strawberries
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup water
1 cup milk
6 eggs
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup white sugar
8 slices bread, cut in half diagonally
1 teaspoon butter
8 sliced fresh strawberries
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar for dusting
1 cup whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 100 degrees F ( 40 degrees C).
  • Heat mashed strawberries and 1/2 cup white sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Mix cornstarch and water together in a bowl, then stir into the strawberries.
  • Cook and stir until thickened, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and simmer while preparing remaining ingredients, stirring occasionally.
  • Whisk together the milk and eggs in a bowl; set aside.
  • Mash cream cheese, vanilla extract, and 3/4 cup white sugar in a bowl until smooth.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture over a triangle-shaped piece of bread, and top with another piece. Repeat with remaining bread and cream cheese mixture to make 8 triangle-shaped sandwiches.
  • Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Dip the sandwiches into the egg mixture, 2 or 3 at a time, and place in the skillet.
  • Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer pan-fried sandwiches to a baking sheet and place in the preheated oven to keep warm while cooking remaining sandwiches.
  • To serve, top French toast with warm strawberry glaze and sliced fresh strawberries and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the cheesecake filling.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but I really enjoyed this French toast. The cheesecake filling was light and fluffy, and it didn't overpower the other flavors.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it. The cheesecake filling is perfectly balanced with the tartness of the strawberries and the sweetness of the French toast.
