Ingredients
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 loaf French bread, cut into 1 inch thick slices
  • Oil of frying
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (less if sensitive to heat)
  • Pure Maple Syrup for serving
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk
Instructions

Heat a large skillet to medium.

Whisk the milk, eggs, salt, vanilla extract, sugar, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg together in a baking dish or large bowl.

Pour the coconut onto a plate.

Pour enough oil in the skillet to completely coat the bottom. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture for 15-20 seconds per side.Then dip the slices in the coconut on both sides for an even coat.When the oil is hot, start frying one slice as a test batch. Cook for 1 minute per side. Watch for a crispy golden-brown crust. The coconut may turn a deep brown, but avoid BLACK! If the coconut burns before the crust has formed, turn the heat down a little.

Add more oil as needed and continue with the rest of the bread.

Serve warm with maple syrup and berries!
