Coconut French Toast
Using my favorite French Toast recipe, I added a little coconut flair and used gluten-free Hawaiian bread to create this delicious Coconut French Toast recipe. Top it with some kiwi and mango for an extra tropical vibe. If Hawaiian bread isn't your thing, feel free to use your favorite bread.

- Add your shredded coocnut to a separate shallow bowl.
- Depending on the size of your bowl, add one to two slices of bread at a time to the batter mixture and leave for a few seconds to soak and turn over so both sides are evenly coated.
