30 20 50

Ingredients

  • RASPBERRY SYRUP:
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries or frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • FRENCH TOAST:
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 18 slices sourdough bread
  • 1/2 cup raspberry preserves
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup half-and-half cream
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Confectioners' sugar and additional raspberries, optional

Directions

  • For syrup, combine raspberries, brown sugar, butter and cinnamon in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-7 minutes or until syrup is desired consistency. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla; set aside.
  • In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sour cream. Spread about 3 tablespoons on each slice of bread. Combine preserves and vanilla; spread over cream cheese mixture on nine slices. Top with remaining bread, cream cheese side down, to make a sandwich.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine the eggs, cream and cinnamon. Dip both sides of bread into egg mixture. Cook on a hot greased griddle for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  • Cut in half diagonally. If desired, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and garnish with raspberries. Serve with raspberry syrup. Yield: 9 servings.
