Directions

Lightly toast two slices of egg bread until golden, then allow them to cool completely.

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over one side of each cooled toast slice.

In a shallow dish, beat the eggs thoroughly with a pinch of ground cinnamon.

Dip the cream cheese-side of the bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds.
-
Melt half of the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Place the soaked bread slices in the skillet and pour any remaining egg mixture over the top.
-
Cook until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.
-
Melt the remaining butter in a second skillet over medium heat.

Carefully flip the French toast into the second skillet to cook the other side.
