  • The night before: Split each bread slice four fifths of the way through. Spread the two sides apart so that they look like butterfly wings. Use a fork hollow out a shallow pocket on the inside of each slice. Discard the crumbs; set bread aside.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the mozzarella, cream cheese and ricotta cheese. Stir in the apricot jam. Spoon 2 tablespoons of cheese mixture into each bread slice. Place slices in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and chill, 8 hours or overnight.
  • The next morning: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Beat together eggs and milk. Dip bread slices into egg mixture and dredge in cornflakes crumbs. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook bread 2 minutes on each side or until golden. Place in a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • In a medium frying pan or skillet, heat 1/4 cup butter, 2 tablespoons sugar, and ginger over medium heat. Add peaches and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Arrange French toast slices on individual plates. Top each serving evenly with peach slices, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with apricot syrup.
