Description
Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Sandwiches are crispy, golden-brown bread sandwiches filled with creamy cheesecake and fresh strawberries. Perfect for breakfast or dessert, they are easy to make at home and deliver a sweet, indulgent treat in every bite.
Ingredients
Sandwich Base:
8 thick slices brioche or challah bread
2 tablespoons butter, for frying
Filling:
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons powdered sugar (plus extra for dusting)
1/2 cup fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
1/4 cup strawberry preserves
Coating:
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons whole milk
Instructions
Soften the cream cheese and mix with powdered sugar until smooth.
Spread cream cheese mixture on 4 slices of bread, top with strawberries and strawberry preserves, then cover with remaining slices.
In a shallow dish, whisk eggs and milk together to make the coating.
Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides, allowing excess to drip off.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat and fry sandwiches 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Remove sandwiches, drain on paper towels, dust with powdered sugar, and serve warm.
Notes
Use slightly stale brioche or challah for a crispier crust.
Slice strawberries thinly to avoid soggy sandwiches.
Monitor skillet heat to prevent burning the bread before the filling warms.
Enjoy immediately for best taste, or gently reheat in a skillet.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
