Step 1
Spread 1 oz cream cheese on two bread slices, divide strawberries between them, top with remaining bread to make 2 sandwiches.
Step 2
Whisk eggs, milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a shallow bowl until combined.
Step 3
Heat 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high until it foams, about 90 seconds.
Step 4
Dip each sandwich into egg mixture, coating both sides for 2–3 seconds per side, then slide into the skillet.
Step 5
Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy; the filling should still be warm but not leaking.
Step 6
Transfer to a plate, top with banana slices and maple syrup, and serve immediately.
