Servings: persons

1 (8 ounce) package neufchatel cheese, softened
1 cup apricot jam
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ cup finely chopped pecans
1 loaf sweet French bread
4 eggs
1 cup whipping cream
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon vanilla
½ cup orange juice

1
In a small bowl beat together the cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of the apricot jam, and the 1 teaspoon of vanilla until light and fluffy.
2
Stir in the pecans and set aside.
3
Cut the bread into ten to twelve 1 1/2-inch-thick slices; cut a pocket in the top of each.
4
Fill the pocket with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture.
5
Combine the remaining apricot jam and orange juice in a small saucepan.
6
Warm over low heat, whisking as jam melts so the mixture is a smooth syrup.
7
Beat together eggs, whipping cream, cinnamon and the 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.
8
Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat, or use a griddle, if preferred.
9
Using tongs, dip filled bread slices in the egg mixture, being careful not to squeeze out the filling.
10
Cook in lightly greased pan for about 2 minutes per side or until lightly brown.
11
Keep warm in a 300 degree oven while cooking remaining slices.
12
To serve, drizzle warm syrup over the hot French toast.
