Notes
Tips
Do not use fresh brioche to make stuffed french toast.
20-30 seconds are good to dip brioche in the egg custard.
If using different slices of bread then give them enough time to absorb the egg mixture.
The skillet should not be high on heat. Always heat the griddle on medium heat and then cook the toasts.
In case cream cheese filling comes out while cooking, don't worry.
Don't add too many strawberries. It may fall out while flipping or bread slices won't stick with each other.
Cream cheese should be at room temperature. It turns lumpy if using a cold one.
