Preparation
Preparation
1 Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Coat skillet with canola oil cooking spray, add 1 Tbsp (15 mL) canola oil, and tilt skillet to lightly coat bottom.
2 Pour egg substitute, milk, zest, and vanilla into a 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Add four bread slices and turn several times to coat evenly.
3 Place these bread slices in the skillet; cook 3 minutes on each side or until golden. Set aside on a separate plate and cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining bread slices and canola oil.
4 Combine yogurt, fruit spread, and zest in a blender. Secure with lid and puree until well blended.
5 To serve, place two slices of French toast on each of four dinner plates, spoon equal amounts of yogurt mixture on each slice, and top with blueberries.
