Description

This is a good fast morning breakfast because the "scut" work is done the night before. Use white, whole wheat, French, english Muffin bread - whatever you have on hand and "stale" is great for this. I have been usind a can of sliced peaches abd reserving 2 or 3 similar-sized slices for garnish with a marschino cherry. Serve the vanilla yogurt on the side for guests to decide how much - I like it slathered!

Ingredients

2 egg whites
1 1⁄2cskim milk
1cbrown sugar, packed
1tground cinnamon
1tgrated lemon rind
 pnground nutmeg
1tvanilla
6slibread
1cnsliced peaches, chopped
1clow-fat vanilla yogurt

Instructions

In a bowl you can cover, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon rind, nutmeg (I use fresh ground - a few cranks on the grinder), vanilla, and egg. Add milk and mix. Break enough bread into small pieces to make a "paste" consistency when stirred. Cover and put into refrigerator for the night.

Spray an 8 x 8 glass pan or a casserole dish with non-stick spray. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Chop peaches reserving garnish slices (or add 2 cups blueberries or whatever kind of berries of choice to substitute for peaches) and mix into bread mixture. Dump into pan and mix so fruit is evenly distributed nd the top is flat. Bake for 40 minutes or so (this holds nicely with oven off if guests are lte coming down). If using glass pan, cut into 6 pieces and serve with a small spatula if serving family style or if plating, 1 piece per plate and then I would have a large can of peaches rather than the regular size have slices to garnish each plate with a dab of yogurt and a peach slice and sprig of mint or a cherry. Have a bowl of yogurt on the table. Honestly, slathered with the yogurt is yummy.

Notes

This is not a real sweet dish. There is just enough sugar to sweeten but not be "sweet".

You must be from the South.    "Fix"  is the state verb of Texas.

All I know is that we say:

"fixin' to go to the house" 

"fixin' to fix supper"

"fixin' to whup those young'uns"

I remember once when conversing with a yankee,  a "fixin' to"  slipped into the conversation and they asked  "is it broken?"

Sounds very good. I wouldn't have guessed about the yogurt. Interesting addition.

Forgot to add this is easily doubled and baked in a 9 x 13 for a larger crowd. It has always gone over very well.
