Every Father's Day my Husband requests Coconut Crust French Toast. It is his favorite breakfast and so the kids and I love making it for him. We have made this every single year for probably 4 years now. Our recipe started very simple but was still very delicious. We would serve it with bananas and berries and his favorite coconut syrup. Here is where we started 4 years ago. Here is my yummy Coconut Crust French Toast recipe.
This year my kids and I decided that we were going to go grand with our French Toast. Coconut Crusted was still important to him, but this time we decided to stuff it. For the kids, it was stuffed with Nutella and Strawberries and for my husband it was stuffed with fresh Mangos and Bananas. Both options were equally delicious!
