Whole Grain French Toast with Blackberry Compote

2 (6 ounce) containers fresh blackberries

1 tablespoon honey

1 egg, separated

1 egg white

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

5 slices whole-grain bread

Place half the blackberries in a bowl; mash into a juicy pulp. Transfer to a small saucepan with the remaining blackberries. Cook over low heat until warm, 3 to 5 minutes. Add honey to the compote.

Beat egg yolk, egg whites, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger together in a bowl. Soak each slice of bread in the mixture for 10 to 15 seconds per side.

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the soaked bread slices until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Ladle the warm berry compote on top.
