How to Make Coconut Macadamia Nut French Toast

  1. Combine 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, 1/2 cup crushed cornflake crumbs, and 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts in a shallow dish. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well blended.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large frying pan over medium heat.
  4. Dip 2-3 slices of bread (challah, brioche, or Texas toast recommended) into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated evenly.
  5. Gently press one side of the dipped bread into the coconut mixture, ensuring it's well coated.
  6. Cook the coconut-side of the bread for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Be careful not to burn the coconut.
  7. Flip the French toast and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and the egg is fully set.
  8. Repeat steps 4-7 with the remaining bread slices.
  9. Serve immediately with warm maple syrup (2-4 tablespoons per serving), whipped cream, and fresh berries, if desired.
