Ingredients
Scale
Bread and Custard
- 4 thick slices brioche or sturdy sourdough bread
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup coconut yogurt, unsweetened or lightly sweetened
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch sea salt
Toppings
- 1/2 mango, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup fresh pineapple, diced
- 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
- Zest of 1 lime
- Extra honey or maple syrup, to drizzle (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking the toast.
- Prepare Custard: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, coconut yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Shape Bread: Arrange the slices of bread on the lined baking sheet. Using the back of a spoon, gently press the center of each slice to form a shallow well while maintaining a raised border around the edges.
- Fill Bread: Evenly distribute the prepared custard mixture into the wells formed in each bread slice, filling them carefully to avoid overflow.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the custard is set and the edges of the bread become golden brown and crispy.
- Top & Serve: Allow the toasts to cool slightly. Then garnish each with diced mango, pineapple, sliced kiwi, shredded coconut, and lime zest. Drizzle with extra honey or maple syrup if desired for added sweetness. Serve immediately for best taste.
Notes
- Use sturdy bread like brioche or sourdough to prevent sogginess during baking.
- You can substitute coconut yogurt with any plant-based yogurt if preferred.
- Adjust the sweetness by using more or less honey/maple syrup according to your taste.
- Feel free to swap tropical fruits based on seasonal availability or preference.
- Keep an eye on baking time to avoid overcooking the custard which can make it rubbery.
