French toast with fruit filling

Ingredients:

• 6 large eggs, beaten
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 2 tbsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp ground cinnamon + extra for sprinkling
• Salt
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 12 slices brioche, about 1 cm thick.
• 170 g of apple pie filling
• 170 gr. cherry pie filling
• Cooking spray
• Powdered sugar, for dusting

Preparation:

1. Preheat an electric grill or grill pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, a pinch of salt, and sugar until smooth.
3. Place 6 slices of bread on a baking sheet and lightly brush the edges with egg wash. Make a "pocket" in the center of each slice of bread for the filling. Spoon 2 teaspoons of apple or cherry pie filling into the center of each bread pocket.
