List of Ingredients




• 2/3 of an 8-ounce package (1/2 cup) fat-free cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons strawberry or apricot spreadable fruit
• 8 1-inch slices French bread
• 2 egg whites
• 1 egg
• 3/4 cup fat-free milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/8 teaspoon apple pie spice
• Nonstick cooking spray
• 1/2 cup strawberry or apricot spreadable fruit


Recipe



1. In a small bowl combine cream cheese and the 2 tablespoons spreadable fruit. Using a serrated knife, form a pocket in each bread slice by making a horizontal cut halfway between the top and bottom crust, slicing almost all the way through to the opposite side. Fill pockets with cream cheese mixture.
2. In another small bowl beat together egg whites, whole egg, milk, vanilla, and apple pie spice. Lightly coat a nonstick griddle with cooking spray. Heat griddle over medium heat.
3. Dip stuffed bread slices in egg mixture, coating both sides. Place bread slices on hot griddle. Cook about 3 minutes or until golden brown, turning once.
4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan heat the 1/2 cup spreadable fruit until melted, stirring frequently. Serve over French toast. Makes 8 servings.
Make-Ahead Tip: Stuff each bread slice as directed; place in an airtight container. Cover and chill overnight. In the morning, prepare egg mixture and cook French toast as directed.
