Yield: Makes 5 servings
French toast stuffed with orange marmalade makes a tantalizing sunrise surprise. Serve it for a family breakfast or a buffet brunch.
Ingredients:
2
cups cholesterol-free egg substitute
1/2
cup evaporated skimmed milk
1
teaspoon grated orange peel
1/4
teaspoon ground cinnamon
1
loaf (1 pound) Italian bread, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices (about 20 slices)
1
jar (10 ounces) no-sugar-added orange marmalade
Powdered sugar (optional)
Maple-flavored syrup (optional)
Preparation:
1.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine egg substitute, milk, orange peel, vanilla and cinnamon in medium bowl. Set aside.
2.
Spread 1 bread slice with 1 tablespoon marmalade to within 1/2 inch of edge. Top with another bread slice. Repeat with remaining bread and marmalade.
3.
Spray griddle or large skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat until hot. Dip sandwiches in egg substitute mixture. Do not soak. Cook sandwiches in batches 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
4.
Transfer toasted sandwiches to 15X10-inch jelly-roll pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until sides are sealed. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with syrup, if desired.
