Vegan French Toast

1/2 c applesauce
1/2 c orange juice
dash cinnamon or nutmeg
1 T margarine (I used EVOO spray)
4 slices whole wheat bread (I used whole grain)

1.  In a shallow bowl, combine the applesauce and orange juice.  Add a spring of cinnamon (or nutmeg) and stir until well blended.

2.  Melt margarine in nonstick pan over medium heat.  While the pan in heating, spoon some of the applesauce mixture over one side of the bread.  When the pan is hot, place the bread in the pan with the spread side down.  Cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown.

3.  Spread more applesauce mixture on the top of the bread and turn with a spatula.  Cook the other side for 2 minutes or until golden brown.  Remove toast from pan.

Serve with maple syrup or jam.  (I sprinkled lightly with powdered sugar.)
