Ingredients
Scale
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
4 slices of bread
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Oil for frying
Instructions
In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Spread the cream cheese mixture on two slices of bread.
Add sliced strawberries on top of the cream cheese mixture.
Top with the remaining slices of bread to form sandwiches.
In a shallow dish, pour the milk. In another dish, place the flour, and in a third dish, mix the breadcrumbs with cinnamon.
Dip each sandwich in the milk, then coat with flour, and finally dip in the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Fry each sandwich until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
Serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar.
Notes
For a richer flavor, you can add a bit of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture.
Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to ensure a crispy texture.
These sandwiches are best served fresh but can be reheated in an oven.
