Cooking spray (olive oil Pam)
2 apples (sliced thin)
1 1/2 cups low-fat cheddar cheese (shredded)
1/2 cup Egg Beaters-whites
3 tbsps oat bran
1 cup 2% milk
cinnamon (to taste)
salt (to taste)
1 tbsp olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray an 8x8 baking dish with olive oil Pam. Place sliced apples in the baking dish in an even layer. Next, evenly layer cheese over apples. Whisk egg whites, oat bran, milk, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Gently mix in the olive oil and slowly pour over cheese-apple mixture. Bake for 45 minutes or until knife inserted comes out dry.Serves about 3 people decent sized portions. We made two servings for a family of 7. Recipe can be scaled. Why it’s great:First, we’re in apple season so it’s a great way to utilize those freshly picked apples. The meal is packed with protein while not including all the cholesterol that comes with using egg yolks. And, it tastes awesome!
