After Christmas, I had so much food that nobody ate the loaf of Italian bread. Day old Italian bread is perfect for French toast but who wants plain French toast; not me. I whipped up a little cream cheese with powdered sugar to sweeten it a bit. I cut a slit in each slice of bread that didn't go all the way through to the other side. I stuffed each piece with cream cheese and a raspberry compote that I had (you can use your favorite jam flavor). I then soaked each piece in a mixture of almond milk (because I ran out of real milk), egg beaters (because I ran out of eggs), vanilla and some cinnamon. Spray a grilling pan with cooking spray and cook until golden on each side. Serve with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and some real maple syrup.
