Ingredients

  • 8 slices white bread
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 2 tspn vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tspn cinnamon

Filling

  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 tspn cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Mix the filling ingredients together in a small bowl until consistency is smooth. Chill 30 minutes.

  2. Roll each slice of bread flat with a mason jar or rolling pin.

  3. Put about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of a slice. Place another slice directly on top, as if you were making a sandwich.

  4. NOTE: Be careful not to press down on the center so the filling doesn’t spread.

  5. Using a wide-mouth mason jar lid or biscuit/cookie cutter, press firmly down on the sandwich and remove the crust around the lid.

  6. Use a knife to refine the edges of the circle. Gently release pocket from lid.

  7. Press down firmly on the outer edges of the pocket with a fork to make indentations.

  8. Repeat steps 3-8 for each pocket. Set pockets aside.

  9. Preheat oven to 400˚F.

  10. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Place baking rack on top of parchment paper and coat with cooking spray.

  11. Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon together in a small bowl.

  12. Separately dip each pocket in egg mixture, flipping to ensure it gets entirely coated. Let excess drip off.

  13. Arrange 4 pockets on baking rack. Bake for 15-25 minutes or until golden brown.

  14. Let cool 5-10 minutes.

  15. Garnish with powdered sugar and syrup.
