The Story & Intro
Hi 👋 I’m Lacamorea, a 31-year-old French girl who traded the cobblestone streets of Paris for the cozy kitchens of America 🇫🇷➡️🇺🇸. Ever since I could reach the countertop, I’ve been whisking, stirring, and sneaking tastes of cake batter when no one was looking 🍰😋. Cooking isn’t just my passion it’s my love language, my therapy, and my favorite way to make people smile.
When I make Strawberry Nutella Stuffed French Toast, I feel like I’m wrapping my family in a warm blanket of love. This recipe brings me straight back to my childhood mornings in Paris, when weekends felt slower and sweeter. I remember standing on a little wooden stool beside my maman, watching her dip thick slices of bread into silky custard while the kitchen filled with the smell of butter and vanilla.

Now, in my American kitchen, I make this Strawberry Nutella Stuffed French Toast when I want to turn an ordinary morning into something special. I make it for birthdays, lazy Sundays, and mornings when someone in my house needs extra comfort. This Strawberry Nutella Stuffed French Toast feels indulgent, but it stays simple at heart. Juicy strawberries, creamy Nutella, golden bread, and a soft custardy center it’s everything I love about breakfast, all in one bite.
Cooking is about more than just food it’s about sharing stories and making memories. Every time I serve Strawberry Nutella Stuffed French Toast, I watch faces light up, and that joy reminds me why I fell in love with cooking in the first place.
Why I Love Making This Recipe
I love this recipe because it feels like a celebration without needing a reason. I don’t need fancy equipment or complicated steps. I only need good bread, ripe strawberries, and a jar of Nutella waiting patiently on the counter.
This Strawberry Nutella Stuffed French Toast lets me slow down. I dip each slice carefully, flip it gently in the pan, and listen to that soft sizzle as butter melts. I love how the strawberries release their juices and mix with the warm chocolate-hazelnut filling.
Most of all, I love how this dish brings people together. No one rushes through a plate of stuffed French toast. Everyone sits, talks, laughs, and asks for just one more slice.
Ingredients & Little Kitchen Secrets

I keep my ingredients simple, but I choose them with love.
I always use thick-cut bread. Brioche stays my favorite because it feels rich and tender, but challah works beautifully too. Thin bread never holds the filling the way I want it to.
I slice my strawberries fresh every time. Frozen strawberries add too much moisture, and I want bright flavor and texture.
Nutella spreads best when it sits at room temperature for a few minutes. I never microwave it because gentle warmth keeps the texture perfect.
For the custard, I use whole milk and eggs, plus a touch of vanilla and cinnamon. I don’t rush this step — the custard gives French toast its soul.
How I Make It, Step by Step
I start by laying out my bread slices on the counter. I spread Nutella generously on half of them, reaching all the way to the edges because no one likes a dry bite.
Next, I layer sliced strawberries on top of the Nutella. I don’t overfill, even though I feel tempted every time. Too much filling makes flipping messy.
I top each one with another slice of bread and press gently, sealing in all that goodness.
In a shallow bowl, I whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. I dip each stuffed sandwich carefully, letting it soak just enough to absorb flavor without falling apart.
I heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter foams, I place the French toast in the pan and let it cook slowly. I flip only once, when the bottom turns golden and crisp.
When both sides look perfect, I transfer them to a warm plate and repeat until every sandwich gets its turn.
How I Serve It at Home
At home, I serve Strawberry Nutella Stuffed French Toast with powdered sugar dusted gently over the top. Sometimes I add extra strawberries on the side or drizzle warm Nutella for a truly indulgent touch.
When I want something lighter, I add a spoon of Greek yogurt or a few fresh mint leaves. Coffee always stays close by strong, hot, and comforting.
Storage, Reheating & Make-Ahead Tips
I store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. I reheat slices gently in a skillet or toaster oven to keep the outside crisp.
When I want to prep ahead, I assemble the sandwiches the night before and store them covered in the fridge. In the morning, I dip and cook them fresh. That little bit of planning makes busy mornings feel calm.
