French Toast with Coconut
Description
Suitable for both holidays and everyday meals. Soft and juicy, with an appetizing crispy crust and a piquant coconut note—these are exactly the toasts I suggest you try. I want to point out that you can add not only vanilla and cinnamon to the milk-and-egg mixture, but also nutmeg or a pinch of cayenne pepper, for example. If the toasts themselves aren't sweet enough, drizzle them with your favorite syrup or jam before serving.
