Cooking Methods
- Coat a medium nonstick sauté pan with cooking spray. Sauté apples until they begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine ricotta, pecans, ¼ cup Splenda and ½ tsp cinnamon. Fold in cooled apples.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together egg substitute, fat-free half-and-half, remaining Splenda and remaining cinnamon.
- Divide the cheese mixture into six equal portions. Spread one slice of bread with 1/6 of cheese mixture.
Top with another slice of bread. Repeat to make six sandwiches.
- Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. Dip each sandwich in egg mixture and cook for
3 - 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from heat and cut in half diagonally.
- Serve with sugar-free syrup, if desired.
