This French toast is simple enough that kids age 8+ should be able to do it all by themselves! Put those kids to work fixing you breakfast for a change! Unfortunately, my kids are barely 6 & 4, so they still need some slight assistance to make this, but they sure love to help!

Strawberry & Nutella Stuffed French Toast

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Yield: 10 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf Rhodes White Bread risen, baked, and cut into 1-inch thick slices (about 10 slices)
  • fresh strawberries hulled and sliced (tip: use an egg slicer to safely cut even pieces)
  • Nutella chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • dash salt, optional

Instructions

  1. Spread Nutella across one slice of bread. Place a few pieces of sliced strawberries on one half.
  2. Fold the bread over the strawberries and crimp the edges with a fork to hide the Nutella and strawberries inside. Repeat with the remaining slices of bread.
  3. Whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon together on a large plate. You can add a dash of salt to help break up the egg membranes, if needed.
  4. Dip each stuffed piece of bread in the egg mixture coating both sides. Cook both sides on a medium-hot griddle (or in a large sauté pan), that has been coated in cooking spray, until golden brown and dry to the touch (so you know the egg mixture has cooked thoroughly).
  5. Serve as is, dusted with powdered sugar, or smothered in syrup. Then dig in! Enjoy!
