Nutella-Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast



My boys love Nutella sandwiches.

They would eat them for every meal if I let them.  As it is, they eat Nutella sandwiches for lunch nearly everyday (the days they don’t are they days I prepare myself for lots of whining and complaining and feed them something awful like hot dogs or mac & cheese).

My boys also love French toast.  Bread drenched in syrup?   Perfect.

So naturally, I figured they would go gaga over Nutella Stuffed French Toast.  I mean, this stuff is a kid’s dream!

You know where I’m going with this, right?

They cried.  They whined.  They didn’t want “Tella Toast”!  They wanted a regular Nutella sandwich!

*sigh*

Some days a Mama just can’t win.

So in this instance, my husband and I very much enjoyed some “Tella Toast” and I’m sure you will, too!


Nutella-Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast
An Amy’s Cooking Adventures Original Recipe

12 slices 100% whole wheat bread
2 (ish) ounces cream cheese, softened
Nutella
3 eggs
3 tbsp lowfat milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Whipped Cream (homemade or store bought)



Preheat an electric skillet to medium heat.

In a large shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla extract.  Set aside.

Spread about 1 tablespoon of Nutella and 1 tablespoon of cream cheese into the center of 6 slices of bread.  Top with the remaining bread slices and cut with a Cut-and-Seal (or something similar).

Dredge each Nutella pocket through the egg mixture and place onto the hot skillet.  Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown.  Serve topped with whipped cream and strawberries.
