We’ve taken the classic French Toast recipe and injected it with some English garden vibes and French buttery goodness. Our recipe uses flaky croissants stuffed with chocolate spread and an easy cheesecake mix. Yes, you heard right. A cheesecake stuffed croissant. If you'd rather use bread or brioche, feel free to use whatever you have to hand to make a stuffed French Toast sandwich instead. 

Why not get creative and stuff the croissants with your favourite fillings. Such as; peanut butter stuffed french toast or even Banana bread french toast. The possibilities are endless.

Directions

    1. Step 1In a small pan over a medium heat, add strawberries, golden caster sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract. Turn heat down, and allow to simmer for 8 minutes, stirring frequently. Once the strawberries have cooked down into a bright red sauce, remove from the heat and leave to cool.
    2. Step 2Next add the cream cheese, golden caster sugar and vanilla extract to a small bowl and mix until fully combined. Refrigerate until needed. 
    3. Step 3In a large bowl add the eggs, milk and cinnamon. Whisk until fully combined or until the eggs are broken and the cinnamon is fully incorporated. Set aside. 
    4. Step 4Slice open your croissants and evenly spread one half with 1 tsp chocolate spread. Next spread over a generous tablespoon of your cheesecake mix and tightly close up your croissant. 
    5. Step 5Submerge each croissant in the egg mix for around 30 seconds and place onto a plate ready to cook. 
    6. Step 6Place a large pan over medium heat and add 25g butter. Once the butter has melted and is foaming, add the croissants and cook for 4 minutes each side, or until the outside is crispy and starting to brown. 
    7. Step 7Serve with a good helping of the strawberry compote and a dollop of whipped double cream. Enjoy!
