French Toast Sandwiches with Apricot Preserves

French Toast Sandwich with cream cheese filling

This is a delicious, decadent breakfast treat that you might want to eat once in a while. Probably not every single morning, though the thought had crossed my mind.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf french bread, cut into slices
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • Apricot jam or preserves
  • 2 TBSP Honey

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, honey, and half of the pecans. Set in the refrigerator to stay cool.

Heat a skillet or griddle to medium-high heat. In a bowl, beat the eggs with the vanilla. Dip each slice of bread in the egg mixture, coating both sides. Place the slices on the griddle and cook 2-3 minutes per side, depending on how high the temperature.

When they're finished, put one slice on your plate and spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture on it. Then complete the sandwich with the other slice. Top with apricot preserves and more chopped pecans.
