Ryan’s Coconut and Cinnamon French Toast

Hats off to my twelve year old sister, Keelyn, who gave me the idea for this one the other day! I’ve always been a massive fan of French toast as a child but I’d never have thought to make it sweet. The end result was absolutely gorgeous, leaving the palate with a nice cinnamon and coconut aftertaste. Throw whatever fruits you like onto it and viola, a healthy alternative to Pop Tarts (excuse the horrific example).

Ingredients:

• Glenisk Irish natural yoghurt
• Coconut milk
• Coconut oil
• 3 eggs
• Cinnamon
• 4 slices multigrain brown bread
• Toppings of fruit such as: kiwi, banana, dried cranberries, bee pollen

Utensils:

• A large frying pan
• Cutlery

Method:

• Whisk together three eggs, ½ a cup of coconut milk and a tablespoon of cinnamon
• Pour the contents into a bowl and soak a slice of brown bread into the mixture
• Pre-heat the frying pan with half a tablespoon of coconut oil
• Move to medium heat and fry the bread and mixture for roughly two minutes on each side
• Repeat the process for however many slices the mixture allows
• Time to decorate: I like chopping up some banana and kiwi and serving them with some natural yoghurt, bee pollen and dried cranberries alongside the bread, but you can put whatever you like. Berries, chopped fruit, dried fruit, nuts and seeds, honey: anything would work
• Enjoy!
