Ricotta Stuffed French Toast




This is what we had for breakfast Halloween morning.  This "recipe" I'm sharing is extremely "eyeballed" as I just threw this together.  For the egg batter, I used 2 eggs, 1/4 of milk, 1/2 tsp of vanilla (the real stuff), 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 container of baby food pureed carrots, and 2 tsp sugar.  For the ricotta stuffing, I used about 3/4 c ricotta cheese and 1-2 tbsp powdered sugar.  Then, I cut the crust off of 10 slices of whole grain white bread, spread the ricotta mixture in between two slices, pressed the sides together, and dipped each pair in the batter.  I cut a couple of pairs into a ghost, pumpkin and finger for my kiddo.  We enjoyed them with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and a drizzle of maple syrup.  These were very simple and really quite good; I've also made them before with pumpkin puree and a dash of nutmeg.  They are equally as good.  

Who doesn't love french toast? 

Here is how my little guy enjoyed his...
