French Toast Bake

Di Ya Wela host Jabi Matsoso shows how to make a perfect and sweet French Toast bake.

  2. Slice the little loaves into 1 cm slices. Divide and spread the cream cheese between half the slices. Top with the remaining slices to form sandwiches.
  3. Whisk the eggs and cream together in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Soak the mini sandwiches in the egg mixture on both sides.
  4. Arrange sandwiches in an ovenproof dish and pour the remaining egg and cream mixture over. Sprinkle golden brown sugar & cinnamon over top. Allow the bread to stand for 15 minutes.
  5. Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
