French Toast Puffs
Ahhh breakfast! The most important meal of the day. Well, closer to brunch of me, but never you mind! We're going to talk about a delish little thing I call Stuffed French Toast Puffs. Oh you can make em sweet or savory, crispty crunchy or ooowey gooey, they're alllll Yummy In The Tummy. Today we're gonna talk about my sweet ones.
1 whole loaf Cinnamon Raisin Bread day old or toasted(With or Without Nuts!) Torn into bite size pieces
12 Eggs
1 Cup Milk (or heavy cream....Ohhh the richness!)
4 TBS Brown Sugah
2 TBS Vanilla
Cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice to taste. (At least 3 or 4 good shakes of each)
Delish Filling:
2 Bricks of Smooshy Cream Cheese
1 Cup Powdered Sugar
Cinnamon, nutmeg and pumpkin pie spice
1/3 Cup Frozen Berries
Start the night before and tear or cut your bread into chunks. Lay it all out in a single layer on a cookie sheet and let it air dry or pop in the oven at 200 and toss every 20 minutes until everyone is all crispity dry.
NOW! To the fun part! Get out your Jumbo Muffin Tin. (Should be 6 muffin holes) Gently grease each tin. Toss in enough bread pieces to cover or almost cover each bottom.
In a separate bowl whisk 6 eggs and pour in 1/2 cup milk, 1 TBS Vanilla, 2 TBS Brown Sugah and spices. Mmmmm..... Spices.
Spoon or drizzle egg mix over dry breads in the cup, no need to cover all the breads. We're gonna put stuff on top of them.
While they soak were gonna mix up the stuff to stuff em with, and it will be fan-tab-oulous!
Get another bowl (I know! Messy right?!?!) and toss your cream cheeses and give em a mix with your mixer until they aren't shaped like bricks anymore. Put in the 1/3 powdered sugar (at a time) along with the spices and vanilla until all incorporated. Taste an make sure it's sweet enough. You can alway add more sugar. God Knows Breakfast Needs More Sugar, right?
Once that's all mixy mixed gently fold in your berries. I like the frozen assortments, but not strawberries. Those chunks are too big.
Before you start dolloping your puffs take the remaining ingredients, 6 more eggs, milk, vanilla, spices and sugar and toss in the remaining bread bits. Make sure to give them a stir and get every one in the mix.
Pre heat oven to 350. Now, it's time to droooooooooooooool.
Dollop a hefty spot of cream cheese mix in the center of eeeeeach preeeeeetty muuffffiiiiiin.
Now reach your hand into that goooey mess of egg and bread mix. Pull out just enough for the top of every one. Then top them off with the liquid left in the bottom. Make sure they all get some.
Now pop em in the oven and bake them for about 25 minutes. Watch em. Just crispy on top and golden all over like french toast. MMMmmmm.....
Pop them outta the oven and slide those beauties out of the tin and place it on a lovely plate. You could put some Syrup on it or some jam. Either way, or plain they are Looooovely.
MMMmmmmmm.... brunch!
