Stuffed French Toast



Description:
Made with Pan de Sabao, a local sweet fresh baked bread that is available in all Puerto Rican bakeries.

Ingredients:
8 Slices of a good "pan de sabao"
4 eggs (Farm Fresh are best)
1/4 cup half & half cream
dash of nutmeg
dash of cinnamon
Mix the eggs and cream and spices all together well - Should be nice and fluffy.
Filling

1 package of cream cheese
1 package pasta de guava

Directions:
Slice the "pan de sabao" into 1&1/2 inch slices. Slit down the middle without parting the bread completely. Heat the pasta de guava in the microwave for a few seconds until it is soft and spreadable. Spread one teaspoon of pasta de guava inside the split slice of bread along with one teaspoon of cream cheese.

Beat the eggs, half & half, cinnamon and nutmeg together. Dip the filled slices of bread into mixture on each side being careful not to get the egg mixture inside the filling. Let stand for fifteen minutes. Then grill on a hot plate coated with butter. It's important to use butter for browning the bread. Cook until brown but don't overcook.


Serve with genuine maple syrup. Top with powdered sugar. Serve with fresh tropical fruit and home fries (another secret recipe -- hint includes Lauries' special herbs de Provence blend).
