To get things off to a good start, here is a recipe for yummy Coconut French Toast. It’s fast and easy to make – perfect for serving to your sweetie Valentine’s Day morning.
Ingredients for making Coconut French Toast.
Melt butter in microwave safe bowl. Just takes about 10-15 seconds if your butter isn’t right out of the fridge.
Beat in egg, then add sugar and vanilla. Mix well.
Finally stir in coconut.
Place bread on a baking sheet. (I use foil to cover mine because I don’t like scrubbing off any spills.) Spread batter over the bread and bake at 350 for about 15 minutes, until bread is lightly browned.
Remove from sheet and top with chocolate syrup, regular syrup, whipped cream, powdered sugar, fruit, or whatever tickles your fancy. If your sweetheart loves coconut, they’ll be sure to thank you for your efforts.
