Ingredients
1loaf day old brioche(store bought is fine)
150gcream cheese,softened
2tablespoonscaster sugar
1teaspoonvanilla extract
1/2cupblueberries(fresh or frozen)
1egg
1/2cupmilk
1/2cupcream
1teaspooncinnamon
Butter,for frying
Extra blueberries,icing sugar and pure maple syrup, to serve
Instructions
Cut brioche into 10 even slices and set aside the two crusts for now. Combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until fully combined. Add blueberries and beat again. Spread cream cheese over half the brioche slices and sandwich together with remaining bread.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, cream and cinnamon. Heat a non-stick fry pan over medium heat and add a knob of butter. Dip sandwiched bread into the egg mixture for about 20-30 seconds on each side and then place into the frypan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining bread. I had a little extra egg mixture so I also cooked the two crusts. Yum!
Dust with icing sugar, serve with fresh blueberries and a drizzle of maple syrup.
