For the strawberry syrup:

To serve:

  1. Combine all of the ingredients for the syrup in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the strawberries are soft and the syrup is thick.
  2. Whisk together the eggs, milk and sugar in a shallow bowl.
  3. Spread half of the bread slices with the cream cheese, then top with the sliced strawberries. Top with the remaining slices of bread and press around the edges to seal.
  4. Heat some butter in a frying pan over a medium heat. Dip the sandwiches in the egg mixture and soak for 1-2 minutes per side. Sprinkle some flaked almonds over one side of each sandwich.
  5. Cook the sandwiches in the pan, almond-side down, for 1-2 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Sprinkle the top of the sandwich with almonds before flipping. Slice on a diagonal to serve with whipped cream, the strawberry syrup and icing sugar.

Note: brioche bread can be used as an alternative to batch, if you wish.
