Ingredients

  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon grated gingerroot or 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 cup natural applesauce
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free maple-flavored syrup
  • 2 eggs plus 1 egg white or 3/4 cup fat-free cholesterol egg product
  • 3/4 cup fat-free (skim) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 8 slices sandwich bread

Steps

  • 1
    Stir together gingerroot, applesauce and syrup in small microwavable bowl. Microwave uncovered on Medium (50%) about 1 minute or until very warm; set aside.
  • 2
    Beat eggs and egg white, milk, vanilla and salt in small bowl with fork or wire whisk until well mixed; pour into shallow bowl.
  • 3
    Spray griddle or 10-inch skillet with cooking spray; heat griddle to 375° or heat skillet over medium heat. Dip bread into egg mixture, coating both sides. Cook about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Serve with applesauce mixture.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To boost the fiber in this spiced French toast, try using whole wheat bread.
  • tip 2
    For a great start to the day, sizzle a couple of reduced-fat breakfast sausage links while the French toast is cooking, and serve with herbal tea or coffee.
  • tip 3
    For quick work in the morning, make the applesauce mixture and egg mixture the night before and store covered in the refrigerator.
