Coconut Almond French Toast image

4 slices bread
1/4 cup shredded coconut
1/4 cup sliced almonds
2 eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup maple syrup

Steps:

  • Put Shredded coconut and almonds into a dinner plate, Mix them up a bit, shake the plate lightly to spread them evenly across the plate then sprinkle the sugar on top. Set near the stove.
  • Break Eggs into shallow pan (e.g. a glass pie plate). Break each of the yolks with a fork and pour ~1/4 tsp vanilla extract into each yolk. Do the same for the almond extract and mix them up. Pour in the milk and beat it all up until it's nicely combined.
