  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 slices of thick bread (Brioche or Challah work best)
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 cup milk (or coconut milk for extra flavor)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1 cup shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
– 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– Butter or oil for frying
– Maple syrup, for serving (optional)
– Fresh fruit, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Coconut Crusted French Toast is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until smooth.
2. Combine Coconut and Flour: In another bowl, mix the shredded coconut, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
3. Dip the Bread: Take one slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Allow excess to drip off.
4. Coat with Coconut: Immediately press the coated bread slice into the coconut mixture, ensuring it’s well covered on both sides.
5. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or griddle, heat a tablespoon of butter or oil over medium heat until hot.
6. Cook the French Toast: Place the coated bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
7. Repeat: Continue the process with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter or oil to the pan as needed.
8. Serve Warm: Remove the French toast from the skillet and place it on a serving plate. Keep warm while you finish cooking the rest.
