  • If you don't have coconut milk, you can use regular milk or almond milk instead.
  • For a vegan version of this recipe, use a plant-based milk and egg substitute.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the French toast. This will help the bread cook evenly and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as berries, coconut, macadamia nuts, or syrup.
