Baked French Toast with Apples
Toast:
2 eggs
1/2 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
4 slices whole-wheat bread, cubed
2 small apples, pared, cored and diced
Topping:
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons reduced-calorie tub margarine
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray two 5 x 3" loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray.
To make toast, in medium bowl, lightly beat eggs. Add milk, brown sugar and cinnamon; stir to blend. Add bread cubes and apples, stirring gently; let stand until bread has absorbed all liquid, 2-3 minutes.
To prepare topping, in small bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, margarine and cinnamon with fork. Divide the bread mixture evenly between the prepared loaf pans; sprinkle each evenly with topping.
Bake 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly and serve warm.
