Stuffed Crunchy French Toast


8 Slices of bread
4 Tablespoons cream cheese
4 Teaspoons orange marmalade
2 Large eggs
Zest and juice of 1 orange
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 Cups bran flakes cereal
1-2 Tablespoons butter

Spread 4 bread slices with 1 tablespoon cream cheese each. Spread the other 4 slices with 1 teaspoon marmalade each. Combine to make 4 sandwiches.

Whisk eggs, orange zest and juice and vanilla in a shallow bowl. Place bran flakes in a bag and crush. Pour crumbs onto a plate. Dip both sides of each sandwich in the egg mixture, then in the crumbs, gently pressing the crumbs onto the bread.

Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwiches in batches until the outsides are golden brown and the insides are melted. 3-4 minute on each side. Add more butter if needed.

Top with powder sugar and syrup

Hey . . .

Now this looks like a rather interesting twist to what I normally enjoy.
I am not sure if my life, body, and soul can wait for all the "stuff" that needs to be gathered to have such a feast.
In the morning, plain French Toast is quick and easy . . .
That My Dear . . . means a lot after a full night of "no food".
Love Ya
