French Toast Bites Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

2 slices whole-wheat or cracked wheat bread
1/4 cup liquid egg substitute
3 tbsp low-fat (1%) milk
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch cinnamon or nutmeg
1 pinch salt, (optional)

Recipe Instructions:

Cut each bread slice into 4 squares or triangles. In a medium shallow bowl or flat casserole, stir together the egg substitute, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt (if desired).

Add the bread. With a large flat spoon or narrow blade spatula, gently move the squares around slightly to help them absorb the liquid. When about half the liquid has been absorbed, turn them and repeat the process until most of the egg mixture is used up.

Transfer the squares to a large nonstick spray-coated nonstick skillet preheated over medium heat. Brown each slice for 3 to 4 minutes, turning each over once with a narrow blade spatula during cooking. Serve plain or with a desired topping.

This recipe yields 2 servings. Serving size: 1 piece.

Exchanges Per Serving: 1 Starch.

“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.”

~ Pearl Buck (1892-1973) American Nobel Prize winning author.
