Step-By-Step Instructions
Prepare the Filling
- In a bowl, smash together the softened cream cheese and Kerrygold Cinnamon & Sugar Butter until smooth and well combined.
Assemble the Stuffed Bread
- Spread the cinnamon cream cheese mixture onto one slice of bread.
- Top with another slice to create a sandwich.
- Repeat with the remaining bread.
Make the Custard Mixture
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, heavy cream, coffee creamer, and brown sugar until smooth and well combined.
Coat the Bread
- Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides lightly.
- Do not soak the bread — just enough to coat.
Cook the French Toast
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the stuffed bread and cook until golden brown on the first side.
- Flip and cook until the second side is golden and cooked through.

Pro Tips & Serving Suggestions
- Use thick-cut bread to hold the custard and stuffing without falling apart.
- Medium heat is key—too hot and the outside browns before the inside cooks.
- Add a light dusting of cinnamon sugar after cooking for extra warmth and sweetness.
- Serve with fresh fruit or powdered sugar for an elevated brunch plate.
