A well rounded Breakfast before a Scavenger Hunt

The sun was shining brightly early on this Saturday morning, April 20th, 2013. We wanted to start out the day with another one of our favorite “epic” breakfasts. We needed to eat a balanced breakfast before we embarked on a day long scavenger hunt. Allie and I decided on 4 different dishes: Fruit Parfaits, Sausage, Pancakes and Filled Croissants.

Stuffed French Toast

First off, STUFFED French Toast.  Ultimately, cinnamon-coated caramel cream cheese stuffed french toast with fruit inside. Foodgasm– epic breakfast style.
Recipe:
– sourdough bread loaf
– container of blueberries, strawberries, and a few bananas
– container of caramel cream cheese
– 2-3 Eggs
– ground cinnamon

Directions:

1. Now, SLICE and GATHER your fruits

2. Divide the bread loaf into even slices [~2 inches thick]

3. Cut the 2 inch slices in half half-way. [Quite the confusing statement- Cut it in the way that allows you to stuff the bread slice]

4. Spread the cream cheese into your newly formed stuff-able bread slice

5. Add the fruit inside

6. In a seperate bowl, beat the eggs. Add as much ground cinnamon as desired

7. Dip your stuffed bread slices into the egg mixture on all sides

8. Cook on stove until golden brown

Enjoy, you’ve got yourself a foodgasm.
