Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups milk
• 1 large egg
• ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 2 slices bread
• 1 dash ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons jam (any flavor)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine cream cheese and jam together in a microwave-safe bowl; cook in the microwave on medium power until softened, about 30 seconds. Stir well.

Step 2

Whisk milk, egg, vanilla extract, and cinnamon together in a bowl until frothy. Dip bread slices into egg mixture until evenly coated on each side.

Step 3

Heat non-stick skillet over medium heat until water drops "skitter" across its surface; add coated bread slices in single layer. Cook, turning frequently to avoid burning, until golden but not yet brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Spoon cream cheese mixture onto 1 slice; cover with second slice. Continue to cook until brown, 1 to 2 minutes more per side.
