Ingredients
  

8 slices of thick-cut brioche bread

1 cup fresh blueberries

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

4 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

2 tbsp butter (for cooking)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Additional blueberries and whipped cream (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and half of the fresh blueberries. Mix until smooth and fully combined. Set aside.

    Stuff the Bread: Take 4 slices of brioche and spread a generous amount of the cream cheese mixture onto each slice. Place the remaining 4 slices on top to create a sandwich. Gently press down to adhere the two slices together.

      Make the Egg Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.

        Soak the Toast: Preheat your skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter. Dip each stuffed brioche sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated but not overly saturated. Allow any excess to drip off.

          Cook the French Toast: In the preheated skillet, place the stuffed sandwiches and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Batch-cook as necessary depending on the size of your pan.

            Serve: Once cooked, transfer the French toast to plates. Top with additional fresh blueberries, a dusting of powdered sugar, and drizzle with maple syrup. If desired, add a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgence.

              Enjoy your delightful Blueberry Bliss French Toast, perfect for a cozy brunch or a sweet breakfast treat!
