                       Bread
  2       ts           Vegetable oil

    1/4   c            Dark corn syrup
    1/4   ts           Ground cinnamon
    1/4   c            Evaporated skim milk

 TO PREPARE FRENCH TOAST:  In a medium-sized bowl,
 whisk together egg, egg whites, milk, sugar, vanilla,
 cinnamon and baking powder until well blended.
 Place bread slices in a large shallow baking dish and
 pour egg mixture over the top; turn to coat evenly.
 Press a piece of wax paper directly on the bread to
 cover it, then cover dish with plastic wrap.
 Refrigerate overnight.
 TO MAKE CINNAMON SYRUP:  In a small saucepan, stir
 together sugar, corn syrup, cinnamon and 1/4 c water.
 Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat,
 stirring constantly.  Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from
 heat and stir in evaporated skim milk.  Let cool;
 transfer to a small pitcher. (The syrup can be stored,
 covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. If
 desired, warm before serving.)
 TO COOK FRENCH TOAST:  Heat 1 t oil and 1/2 t butter
 in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
 Add four of the soaked bread slices to the pan and
 cook until golden on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per
 side.  Transfer the toast to a platter and keep warm
 in a warm oven.  Cook the remaining slices in the same
 manner, using the remaining 1 t oil and 1/2 t butter.
 Serve with cinnamon syrup.
