A delightful combination of creamy cheesecake filling and fluffy brioche, bursting with blueberries, perfect for cozy breakfasts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 150g (5.3 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons caster sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup blueberries (fresh or thawed if frozen)
  • 1 loaf day-old brioche, sliced thick (8 slices)
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup cream
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Butter, for frying
  • Extra blueberries
  • Icing sugar, for dusting
  • Maple syrup, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, caster sugar, and vanilla extract. Gently fold in the blueberries until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Slice the Brioche: Slice the brioche into thick 1.5-inch slices, ensuring each piece is hearty enough to hold the filling.
  3. Create the Pocket: Using a sharp knife, create a deep pocket in the middle of each slice OR sandwich two slices together if you prefer a double-stuffed approach.
  4. Stuff the Brioche Slices: Fill each brioche slice with 1–2 tablespoons of the cheesecake mixture. If using two slices, press the edges gently to seal the filling inside.
  5. Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, milk, cream, and cinnamon until well combined, creating a luscious coating for the bread.
  6. Heat the Skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium heat, adding a small knob of butter to melt and create a golden base for frying.
  7. Prepare for Cooking: Dip each stuffed slice of brioche into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated.
  8. Sauté with Perfection: Place the coated slices in the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp.
  9. Plating Up: Transfer the cooked slices to a plate, ready for a scrumptious finishing touch.
  10. Dress to Impress: Top with a dusting of icing sugar, extra blueberries, and a generous drizzle of maple syrup. Serve warm and indulge in this heavenly creation!

Notes

Use day-old brioche for best results. You can prepare the filling and stuff the bread ahead of time and refrigerate overnight.
