* A Surprise-Inside French Toast





1/4 cup part-skim ricotta cheese


1/4 cup whipped cottage cheese


2 Tbs low-fat cream cheese


2 tsp sugar


2 tsp any extract


= (try orange, vanilla, strawberry,


almond)


12 egg substitutes


1/4 cup evaporated milk


Cooking spray, as needed








Cut a pocket in each slice of bread. Open carefully.





With an electric beater, whip together the cheeses, sugar, and extract. Spread the mixture evenly into each bread pocket.





Beat together the eggs and milk. Dip the bread slices in the egg-milk mixture. Turn to coat both sides.





Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Coat with spray. Cook the toast on each side for about 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown.





Comments: Stuffed French toast with a creamy filling is good paired with a fibrous fruit such as a 1/2 cup fresh raspberries. 6 slices challah or French bread, cut 2 inches thick (if you can find whole-wheat, the better)


This French toast is high in sodium, primarily because of the cheeses. For a lower-sodium dish, substitute no-salt cheeses if you can find them

*Stuffed French Toast With Apple Syrup





Ingredients


Combine in medium pan on stove top:


1 cup sugar, 2 cups apple juice or cider, 1 tsp cinnamon, 2 tbsp corn starch.


Heat on med-low, stirring frequently until thickened. When thick, add two tbsp of butter. Stir until melted. This mixture can be held on warm while you prepare the French toast.


Combine in large bowl:


4 eggs, 2 cups milk, 陆 tsp cinnamon, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp vanilla. Mix well.





Directions


Heat electric skillet to 350-400 degrees. Add a few dabs of bacon fat to melt in the skillet.


Dip one inch thick slices of French bread in egg mixture; fry in hot skillet until slightly brown on one side, then flip to the other side. While bread is cooking on side two, place a dollop of softened cream cheese onto half of the slices and spread around on the slice. Stack the cooked slices onto the slices with cream cheese to make a sandwich-type effect. Prepare all bread sandwiches this way.





To serve: Place one or two stuffed toasts onto the plate. Ladle warm syrup onto the toast. Sprinkle grated pecan pieces across the top and add a squirt of whipped cream. Serve with ham slices.








*Stuffed French Toast Covered in Fried Apples





Ingredients





1(8count)can crescent rolls





Batter


3 eggs


1 tablespoon sugar


1 teaspoon vanilla





Filling


5 ounces cream cheese(softened)


3 tablespoons butter or margarine(softened)


3/4 cup powdered sugar


1/2 teaspoon vanilla





Fried Apples


3-4 medium apples(any variety)


1/4 cup apple juice


1/8 cup sugar


1 tablespoon lemon juice


2 tablespoons butter or margarine


1 teaspoon cinnamon


Cool Whip or ice cream, if desired


cinnamon


1-2 tablespoon butter, for sauteing the toasts





Direction.


1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease or spray with cooking oil a medium sized baking sheet.


2.Don't divide the crescent rolls. Lay them out completely flat on the baking sheet. Then seperate them into four keeping two together to create four rectangles.


3.Beat together the cream cheese, butter, powerdered sugar and vanilla. Spoon onto center of each rectangle, leave about a 1/2 inch space all around.


4.Fold the rectangles from one corner to the other and then fold up the other two corners to create a triangle. Try to even out the dough and make sure there are no holes otherwise your filling will leak out. Bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned.


5.While baking, cut up apples into slices. Melt the butter in a medium or large skillet. Add in the apples, apple juice, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring the apples occasionally so they won't burn. When they are soft and almost translucent, add in the sugar and cinnamon, stirring a few minutes longer until sugar is melted and sauce is thick. Set aside.


6.When the toast is finished baking cool for 3-5 minutes. Beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla until blended. In a small skillet, melt some butter, dip one of the toast into the egg mixture and turn over to coat each side. Brown in skillet about 2 minutes to each side, continue with other three pieces.


7.Sprinkle the finished french toast with powdered sugar if desired. Top with the apples, and cool whip or ice cream. Also sprinkle a little bit of cinnamon on top of the cool whip or ice cream.


8* Stuffed french toasts can be made in advance and frozen until ready to serve. Bake about 10-15 minutes or until completely warmed through.





(You can use any fruit topping and it will still be delicious, apples are just a personal favorite of mine. I used french vanilla ice cream because that tastes great with apples, but experiment and have fun, this can be kind of rich so you will only want to eat one or two yourself.)
