Stuffed French Toast

Growing up we ate french toast a lot. It was quick, easy, and tasty. I remember some days when my brothers would eat at least 6, if nor 8 or 10 pieces! I love french toast and its sugary goodness. Honestly, that's the best way to start out the day for me! Well, I like to spice up my french toast with cinnamon, fruit, powdered sugar, peanut butter, you name it. Here's a super delicious recipe for stuffed french toast. It's heaven in every bite and a recipe that you'll love!

Stuffed French Toast



1/2 loaf of bread (in a loaf that's not sliced already)  $.50
6 tsp. jam (of your favorite flavor)  $.16
3 large eggs  $.48
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract  $.08
pinch of grated nutmeg  $.02
2 Tbsp unsalted butter  $.31

Slice bread into 6, 1 inch thick slices. Slice a pocket crosswise about 1/3 of the way into the bread. Spread 1 tsp. jam in the pocket. Press bread together.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and nutmeg. Add bread slices to mixture and let them soak for 5 minutes, flipping them in the middle of the waiting time to ensure they're good and soaked.
Heat large frying pan or griddle over medium-high heat. Add butter. When butter begins to brown, spread to coat pan evenly. Place slices of bread onto pan. Cook until golden on the undersides (4-5 minutes). Flip the bread and cook for addition 4-5 minutes for the other side to be golden brown. Remove from pan, enjoy!
