Peach Filling Tips
The cream cheese and peach jam filling is what makes this recipe so decadent. A few tips:
- Room temp cream cheese blends smoothest.
- Use a good peach jam (or make your own if you’ve got lots of peaches).
- Add fresh peach slices inside the filling for extra texture and flavor.
You can also swap the peach jam for apricot jam in a pinch—it still complements the fresh peaches on top.
FAQs
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes. Assemble the stuffed French toast sandwiches the night before, cover tightly, and store in the fridge. In the morning, dip in custard and cook fresh.
What bread works best?
Brioche is ideal for its soft, buttery texture, but challah or Texas toast also work well.
Do I need peach jam?
The jam enhances the peach flavor and makes the filling creamy, but you can substitute apricot jam if needed.
Can I use canned peaches?
Yes! Drain peaches and pat lightly with paper towels to remove excess syrup.
