Step 1

Make the filling: Add the raspberries, blackberries, black raspberry liqueur, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup to a large bowl. Stir and let sit for 10 minutes for the berries to macerate.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese and remaining tablespoon of maple syrup until smooth.

Step 3

Spread the filling evenly over the 4 slices of bread. Arrange some of the berries on 2 slices of the bread and top with the other slices of bread. Press to seal the pieces together.

Step 4

In a shallow dish, whisk together the milk, egg, black raspberry liqueur, and salt.

Step 5

Melt the butter on a griddle or in a large skillet over medium heat. Quickly dip both sides of the bread pockets in the milk mixture, then transfer to the pan and fry on each side for about 3 minutes, until golden brown.

Step 6

In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the maple syrup and continue beating until the cream holds medium peaks.

Step 7

Serve the stuffed French toast with a dollop of maple whipped cream and a scoop of macerated berries with their soaking liquid.

Step 8

Enjoy!
