Speedy French Toast

Toast two bread slices until browned and crisp.

 

Slather 1/2 tablespoon softened low-fat butter on each side. Pour maple syrup or honey on top.

When you do have time to make the real thing, try these variations:

 

 

 

Sprinkle powdered sugar over slices of French toast and serve with slices of your favorite fruits.

 

 

Fill two slices of French toast with 2 to 3 crisp bacon slices and 1 scrambled egg, and pour syrup all over. 

 

Slice French toast into "sticks." Serve with jam or honey-yogurt dressing on the side for dipping. (To make honey-yogurt dip: Mix plain yogurt with honey; sweeten as desired.

 

 

Sandwich a slice of dark chocolate between 2 slices of French toast and toast in a panini press.
