20 minutes total

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf Bakery Italian five grain bread (unsliced)
  • 1 ½ cups whole milk
  • 3 large eggs (or ¾ cup egg substitute)
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • ¼ cup reduced-fat Greek yogurt with honey
  • ¼ cup whipped cream cheese
  • 2 large zip-top bags
  • ½ cup strawberry jam (or guava filling)

Steps

    1. Cut bread into 8 (1-inch-thick) slices. Whisk milk, eggs, nutmeg, and vanilla; pour into large, shallow dish. Preheat large sauté pan on medium 2–3 minutes. Place 4 bread slices in egg mixture; soak 20 seconds, flipping occasionally. Place 1 tablespoon each butter and oil in pan, then add bread carefully; cook 2–3 minutes until golden (do not flip).
    2. Combine cream cheese and yogurt; transfer to 1 zip-top bag. Place jam in second bag. Seal bag, then snip off 1 corner of each. Flip bread over and squeeze 2 tablespoons cream cheese mixture each onto 2 slices bread, then 2 tablespoons jam each on remaining 2 slices; cook 1–2 minutes until bread is golden on the bottom.
    3. Remove bread from pan; press cream cheese–coated slices onto jam-coated slices; cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining 4 slices bread, egg mixture, 1 tablespoon each butter and oil, and ¼ cup each filling. Serve.
