| 5. | Cook the French Toast: Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a pat of butter. - Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated. - Place the sandwiches on the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. |
| 6. | Serve: Place the stuffed French toast on plates, spoon the warm maple-berry compote over the top, and add a dusting of powdered sugar if desired. - Serve immediately with extra maple syrup on the side for drizzling. |
| 7. | Tips: For added flavour, you can mix some fresh fruit into the cream cheese filling. - If you prefer a non-dairy option, substitute the milk and heavy cream with almond or oat milk.
