Ingredients

1/2 slice of chocolate panettone about 1" thick

1 cup egg, plus ¼ egg whites, beaten gently

pinch of Cinnamon

pinch of Cayanne

Fresh Berries

Spray low fat cooking spray in each of two 3.5" ramekins.

In a small bowl, gently beat egg whites with whole egg, adding the Cinnamon and Cayanne.

Cut the Panettone into 1" cubes and place into the ramekins evenly.

Add 1 tbsp chocolate chips to each ramekin and distribute evenly among the bread cubes.

Pour the egg mixture evenly over each of the ramekins, dividing roughly in half. Squeeze the bread cubes down so that they are saturated.

Bake uncovered for about 1/2 hour to 40 minutes. They will puff up like a souffle.

Allow to set for 2-4 minutes and then remove french toast from ramekin.

Serve with Fresh Berries, sausage and warm maple syrup.
