Coconut Sesame French Toast – FAQs
Coconut Sesame French Toast offers a tropical twist on the classic breakfast favorite by incorporating shredded coconut and toasted sesame seeds into the batter and topping. The result is a deliciously crispy exterior with a soft, custardy interior, bursting with nutty and sweet flavors. It’s perfect for those who love a unique texture and an exotic flavor profile in their morning meal.
This recipe is versatile, you can use any bread of your choice, but slightly stale bread works best as it absorbs the custard mixture without becoming soggy. For a dairy-free version, substitute regular milk with coconut or almond milk, which enhances the coconut flavor even more. Serving it with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a drizzle of honey complements the richness and balances the nuttiness from the sesame seeds.
Coconut Sesame French Toast can be made ahead by preparing the custard mix and soaking the bread in advance, making breakfast prep easier on busy mornings. For added crunch, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top right before serving.
