Fresh strawberries and French toast on a stick: makes 8

10 slices of bread about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick
16 strawberries of roughly equal size, plus more for garnish
Strawberry jam
Philadelphia cream cheese
1/2 cup (125 mls) French vanilla coffee creamer
3 large eggs beaten
2-3 tablespoons (30 – 45 grams) butter
Maple or pancake syrup
Confectioners sugar for dusting

In a shallow bowl wide enough to take a whole slice of bread, using a fork, whisk together the eggs, coffee creamer and salt.
Place each of the slice of bread into the egg mix pressing down and turning it over in order to saturate the bread as much as possible.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium heat and melt a little butter in it.
Cook each slice of soaked bread for 2 minutes per side or until golden brown.
Remove the toasted breads to a cutting board and spread each piece of toast on one side with some cream cheese and strawberry jam.
Cut each slice of bread into equally sized squares and thread onto skewers alternating with a half of strawberry. 5 squares of bread and 4 halves of strawberry per skewer.
Dust with confectioners sugar and drizzle with syrup and serve!
