Fancy French Toast

3 eggs ($.25)
1 egg white ($.08)
1 tsp. cinnamon ($.10)
1 T. sugar ($.05)
1/4 C. coffee creamer - any flavor (free after coupons)
1/8 tsp. vanilla extract (or any flavor to compliment the coffee creamer) ($.05)
12-16 slices of bread ($.25)
2 tsp. margarine or oil ($.10)

In a large, shallow bow, combine eggs, egg whites, cinnamon, sugar, creamer, and extract. Whisk thoroughly.

Add 1 tsp. of oil to a hot skillet, dip bread quickly into egg mixture (on each side) and fry over a medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown on each side. Repeat until all the bread has been dipped and fried.

Serve with maple syrup, powdered sugar, butter, sausage or bacon (or even ham), and side of fresh fruit.

For a fruity twist, top these with canned peaches or thin sliced apples or fresh berries.

Yields = 4-5 servings (3 slices of bread each)
Cost $.88 or $.18 to $.22 per person
