Bread Selection
Use a sturdy bread like brioche, challah, or thick-cut white bread. Stale bread works best as it absorbs the custard mixture better without becoming soggy.
Soaking Time
Soak the bread slices long enough to fully saturate them with the egg mixture, but not so long that they become mushy. A few seconds per side is usually sufficient.
Cooking Temperature
Cook over medium heat to ensure the inside cooks through without burning the outside. A gentle browning is ideal.
Cream Cheese Filling
Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easier spreading. You can add a touch of vanilla extract or powdered sugar to the cream cheese for added flavor.
Berry Selection
Use a variety of fresh berries for a more complex flavor profile and visual appeal. Consider strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
