Make a pocket in bread slices by slicing again, but not all the way through. Combine eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, custard powder and milk, beating well with a wire wisk. Set aside. Combine the cream cheese, jam, slivered almonds and almond extract. Stir. Stuff the pocket of the Challah bread with the cream cheese mixture. Dip stuffed bread in the egg mixture. Grill on a hot griddle. Top with Almond Accents and apricot syrup.
