Ingredients
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
8 (2-inch) thick slices bread
2 bananas, very thinly sliced
1 cup strawberries, very thinly sliced
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Maple syrup
Directions
- Combine milk, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla in a shallow bowl. Set aside.
- For assembly, spread a thin layer of the cream cheese onto 1 side of the bread slices. Top half the slices with the fruit. Place another piece of bread on top, cream cheese side down, creating a sandwich.
- Preheat a griddle to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush with the butter.
- Give the milk mixture a quick stir, and dip the sandwiches into the batter, coating all sides.
- Place on the griddle. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, then turn on the edges and cook to brown evenly.
- To serve, slice sandwiches in half on the diagonal and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup.
