    List of Ingredients

    OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST and CINNAMON SYRUP

    1 large egg
    2 large egg whites
    3/4 cup skim milk
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon baking powder
    8 (1/2-inch thick) sliced Italian bread
    2 teaspoons vegetable oil
    1 teaspoon butter
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/4 cup dark corn syrup
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon|
    1/4 cup evaporated skim milk

    In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together egg, egg whites, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and baking powder until well blended. Place bread slices in a large shallow baking dish and pour egg mixture over the top, turn to coat evenly. Press a piece of wax paper directly on the bread to cover it, then cover dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.

    In a small saucepan, stir together sugar, corn syrup, cinnamon and 1/4 cup water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in evaporated skim milk. Let cool, transfer to a small pitcher. (The syrup can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. If desired, warm before serving.)

    Heat 1 teaspoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add four of the soaked bread slices to the pan and cook until golden on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the toast to a platter and keep warm in a warm oven. Cook the remaining slices in the same manner, using the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon butter. Serve with cinnamon syrup.

    Yield: 4 servings
