Decadent and Skinny Stuffed Apple French Toast Sandwich

Directions

1. Spread one side of each slice of bread with a teaspoon of jam.

2.  On top of two slices of bread, on the jam side, spread each with ½ tablespoon of cream cheese.  Top each with one slice of cheese and some apple slices.   Place remaining 2 slices, jam side inside, on top of each sandwich.

3. In a bowl add the egg white and vanilla.  Whip together with a fork.   Dip both sandwiches in the egg whites coating both sides.

4. Spray a medium nonstick pan or skillet with cooking spray.  Melt 2 teaspoons of reduced-fat butter in the pan and swirl around the bottom of the pan. Add the dipped sandwiches to the pan.  Grill for about 2 -3 minutes until golden brown, turn-over and cook the underside until golden brown and thoroughly cooked.

5. Remove cooked sandwiches from pan and place on small plates.  Spread the top of each sandwich with 1 teaspoon of reduced-fat butter or spread.  Sprinkle each top with a little cinnamon and sugar mixture.

6. Serve with a fork and knife and any extra apple slices on the side.

Prep Tip

This recipe can be doubled, tripled and so on.  To keep multiple sandwiches warm while cooking all of them, place the cooked ones in a preheated 300 degree oven to keep warmed.  Don’t top these with the butter and cinnamon/sugar mixture until ready to serve all of them.   Add more reduced-fat butter to the pan before cooking additional sandwiches.
