AM Apple Scramble

I haven't made this in along time but I came across the recipe and remembered how much I liked it!  I'll definitely be making this soon!  Enjoy!!

1 cup peeled and finely chopped apple (approx. 1 medium apple) 
1 slice Wonder Light White Bread
1/2 cup Egg Beaters, Original
3 tbsp. regular oats (not quick or instant)
1 oz. light vanilla soymilk
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 packets SPLENDA 
pinch salt

Directions: 
Begin by stirring to combine all ingredients except for the bread and apple. Set aside. Toast bread well (but do not burn) and allow it to cool.  Tear bread into pieces and place in a blender or food processor.  Pulse bread until reduced to small pieces.  Add mixture and chopped apple to blender or processor and pulse until mixed (NOT liquefied).  In a pan sprayed with nonstick spray, cook mixture over medium heat.  Prepare as you would scrambled eggs, constantly moving mixture around with a spatula.  Cook for approximately 5 minutes, until solid crumbles form and brown slightly.  Serves 1!
