| Directions | FILLING:
- Mix the cream cheese with brown sugar, white sugar, raisins, cinnamon, almond extract and apple pie filling until completely combined.
TOAST:
- Cut the loaf of bread into 6-8 one inch thick slices.
- Slice down the center of each slice to approximately 1/4 inch to the end. Do not cut all the way through the bread. This will create a pocket for the filling.
- Fill each pocket with cream cheese mixture, approximately 1/4 cup. It is alright if it leaks out the edges a little.
- In a shallow dish, mix together the milk, eggs, vanilla and cinnamon until well blended.
- Dip each filled bread slice in the egg mixture, coating both sides.
- Place on a hot griddle, cook 3-5 minutes on 1 side until nicely browned and then turn and grill the second side.
- Keep warm in the oven.
SYRUP:
- In a small sauce pan, heat together the maple syrup, honey and butter.
- Serve over the warm french toast.
