I used whole grain bread, unsweetened applesauce, and butter. I liked how the applesauce cooked into the bread and became a gooey filling inside the crisply grilled outsides of the sandwich. The sugar and cinnamon were a nice touch, too. I have had this same type of sandwich prepared with apple butter instead of the sauce. While this was a good sandwich, I do think that I preferred the apple butter. Thanks for posting, though. This was a nice snack.

Really good and super quick to make. This is definitely a great addition to our recipe collection. We made it with multigrain bread and unsweetened applesauce. With the cinnamon sugar, it was a perfect combination. Thanks so much for sharing.

I would rather eat a cup of applesauce, with a side of of buttered toast topped with cinnamon and sugar sprinkle. Not a fabulous recipe if you ask me.

Yumyumyum, these are wonderful. I have been on the look out for school morning breakfasts I can make for my kids - stuff I don't have to be wide awake for, stuff that doesn't take a lot of time, stuff that is healthy, and stuff that is delicious. This is definitely in all those categories, and therefore in my breakfast cookbook! Thank you so much for posting.
