1
Heat a griddle pan over medium heat. Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, orange zest and juice together in a shallow dish.
2
Grease the pan with butter. Take a slice of French bread and coat it on both sides with the egg batter and place directly into the hot pan. Repeat with other slices.
3
Cook the slices of French toast until golden brown on both sides and cooked completely through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the bread from the pan and keep warm while you make the filling.
4
Meanwhile, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a medium-sized bowl. Carefully fold in cranberry sauce.
5
To assemble, take one slice of hot French toast and spread a layer of filling inside. Top with another slice. Cut stuffed French toast carefully on the diagonal (filling will ooze out) and set on a serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar. Serve with maple syrup and butter.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
