French Toast Sandwiches
(Gout-friendly)
Ingredients
-
4 thin slices whole-grain bread
-
2 large eggs (alternative: 1/2 cup egg substitute )
-
1/4 cup skim milk
-
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
2 tablespoons reduced-fat cream cheese
-
2 tablespoons apricot preserves
-
Cooking spray
-
2 teaspoons powdered sugar
-
1/4 cup warm maple syrup
Directions
In a bowl or baking dish large enough for flat bread, beat eggs with milk and vanilla. Make 2 sandwiches with the cream cheese and apricot preserves. Put sandwiches in egg/milk/vanilla mixture, carefully turning so both sides absorb the liquid.
Lightly coat a nonstick skillet or griddle with cooking spray and heat to medium. Cook sandwiches until golden and the middle is heated through, turning once, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Dust lightly with powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup.
