Recipe From Spyglass Grill At Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort
Cream Cheese and Guava-Stuffed French Toast
Guava is one of my absolute favorite flavors. I was not able to taste this Cream Cheese and Guava-Stuffed French Toast yet in person, but we made it at home. All I can say is…OMG!
I can’t tell if it’s breakfast disguised as dessert or dessert for breakfast. But either way, I loved it!
It is very rich and creamy. The strawberries give it a wonderful freshness to balance the richness. And the guava is just yum!

For Guava Sauce
- Place water and cubed guava paste in a small saucepan over medium low heat.

For French Toast
- Melt a little butter in a large pan over medium heat.
- Dip 2 slices of bread into the egg custard. Just a few seconds on each side is enough.
- Place dipped bread on to pan.
- Cook the first side until golden, about 2 minutes. Flip.
- On one slice of bread place 2-3 slices of guava paste. On the other slice of bread place ¼ of the cream cheese filling mixture.
- Decrease heat to low. Allow slices to cook for another minute until golden brown.
- Once golden, place the cream cheese side of bread onto the guava side to make a sandwich. Cook for another minute.
- Put on a plate and drizzle with cream cheese icing and guava sauce.
- Garnish with sliced strawberries.
