Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 6-8 minutes
Yield: 5 servings
Serving size: 3 sticks
Ingredients
10 slices of Ezekiel® Bread (in healthy freezer section)
½ cup 100% pumpkin puree
¼ cup part skim ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon raw honey
1 egg + 2 egg whites
¼ cup Silk® Unsweetened Original Almondmilk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sugar (or sweetener of your choice)
Instructions
Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat.
Carefully cut the crust off of the bread, to make even squares.
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the pumpkin, ricotta, and honey.
Evenly spread the pumpkin mixture on 5 slices of bread, and top them with the other 5 slices, making sandwiches.
Slice each sandwich into 3 “sticks” making a total of 15.
In another medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almondmilk, cinnamon, and vanilla.
Spray the preheated griddle or skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Dunk the “sticks” in the egg mixture and allow the excess to drip off back into the bowl.
Working in batches, cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
When they are done, sprinkle immediately with the sugar and serve warm.
Freeze any leftovers in a resealable freezer bag, and microwave for 2-3 minutes to reheat.
