Banana, Strawberry, and Cream Cheese stuffed French Toast

I found this recipe on iVillage. It's great for all that summer fruit and makes a very "gourmet" breakfast without too much effort.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 9

Ingredients

• 2  loaves  wide  French bread
• 1 (8 ounce) package  soft cream cheese
• 2  tablespoons  strawberry jam
• 1  pint blueberries
• 1  dozen egg
• 3  cups milk (at least 2%)
• 2  teaspoons vanilla
• 1  bag  frozen strawberry
• 1  quart fresh strawberries
• 3  ripe bananas
• 1⁄2 cup sugar

Directions

1. Chop strawberries and bananas and cream together with strawberry jam and cream cheese.
2. Cut bread into 1 1/2 inch thick slices.
3. Cut a pocket into the bread but do not cut through the crust on the bottom.
4. Stuff with the filling.
5. Mix the eggs in a bowl that is not too deep so that the bread does not get soggy.
6. Then, using tongs, take your stuffed bread and put one side at a time into the egg mixture.
7. Fry in butter until brown.
8. Stack in a glass dish and keep warm in the oven until you are finished with the servings you need.
9. Liquefy in a blender, 2 cups of strawberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and a little water to make a thick syrup.
10. I use frozen berries for this part.
11. Put one piece of the French toast on a plate.
12. Top with the strawberry sauce.
13. Sprinkle on confectionery sugar, and top with some fresh blueberries around the plate.
14. Serve at once.
