Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Servings 5

Ingredients

  • a loaf of White Italian Bread
  • 8 ounces Whipped Cream Cheese
  • 1 jar Mixed Berry Jam
  • 6 large Eggs
  • 1 cup 2% Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • Blackberries Blueberries, and Raspberries for garnish
  • Maple Syrup

Instructions

  1. First butter the bottom and sides of a casserole dish. Heat your oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Then cut the loaf of bread into slices one inch thick. You may need to slice the ends of the slices of bread off so that the bread will fit neatly into the casserole dish. Save any bread scraps, these will come in handy later.
  3. Spread the cream cheese and jam on the bread creating sandwiches and arrange them in the casserole dish.
  4. Next, in a medium size bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and vanilla together.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the bread, completely submerging the bread. Lightly press down on the bread until it absorbs the egg mixture if the bread starts floating. Add the scraps of bread to fill any space in the dish.
  6. Bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes. Then brush the top with melted butter, and increase the heat to low broil. This will beautifully brown the top of the French Toast within a couple of minutes.
  7. Serve garnished with blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries and topped with maple syrup.
