Creating Creamy Blueberry Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast is simple. Follow these steps for a delicious breakfast:
1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, blueberries, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Set aside.
2. Make the Egg Mixture: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and ground cinnamon until smooth.
3. Assemble the Toast: Take two slices of bread. Spread a generous amount of the cream cheese mixture on one slice and top with the other slice to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining slices.
