How To Make the best stuffed french toast

• Step 1
  Spread about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese onto a slice of sourdough, then 1 tablespoon of apricot jam onto another slice. Sandwich the two slices together and set aside.
• Step 2
  Repeat the process.
• Step 3
  Store sandwiches in a plastic bread bag and chill in the fridge overnight or at least 15 minutes. 5 minutes in the freezer if you're in a hurry to eat!
• Step 4
  In a shallow dish, beat eggs and combine with milk, vanilla and lemon zest. This is what I call the custard.
• Step 5
  Add butter to a nonstick pan and heat on medium. Use two pans if all 4 sandwiches will not fit onto one.
• Step 6
  Remove the sandwiches from the fridge/freezer and remove from the plastic bag. Dip a sandwich each side in the custard and gently lay onto the pan, taking care not to splatter any hot butter. Repeat the process and cook the sandwiches 2 minutes on each side.
• Step 7
  Serve warm with Grade B maple syrup and freshly brewed tea and or coffee.
