Berry-Stuffed French Toast With Vanilla Yogurt Sauce

Whenever I think about French Toast, I remember a beautiful and kind friend in college who brought me to her house with another friend and she taught us how to make French toast. I really like how she made her french toast! Since then every time I see French toast anywhere, she would almost always come to mind. She is now based and working in Singapore.
Anyway I found this recipe just awhile ago and I want to try it soon or maybe later you know how busy moms can be when it is almost exam week in our little kid's school.
It looks so yummy and I love this kid of toast. I'm craving for it already!

Berry-Stuffed French Toast With Vanilla Yogurt Sauce recipe that I found at Food.com which I would like to try but in a simpler version soon.
Ingredients:

2 cups fresh mixed berries, about 1/2 lb (blueberries, sliced strawberries, raspberries or blackberries)
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/3 cup fat-free sweetened condensed milk
1 (6 ounce) container low-fat vanilla yogurt
10 ounces French bread (1 small loaf)
1 egg
1 egg white
1/3 cup low-fat milk
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
nonstick cooking spray

Directions:
1. Place berries in a small bowl and sprinkle with powdered sugar. For the sauce, spoon about 1/4 of the berries, sweetened condensed milk and yogurt into a blender (or food processor) and puree until smooth; set aside.
2. Cut bread into twelve 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut into each piece almost all the way through to create a pocket. Stuff the bread slices with remaining sweetened berries and press lightly to close; set aside. Reserve any unused berries to garnish top at serving time.

3. Whisk egg, egg white, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Dip stuffed bread slices in egg mixture to coat and cook until lightly browned on both sides, turning once.

4. Spoon sauce onto serving plate, arrange French toast on top and garnish with any remaining berries.
