Ingredients

For the French Toast

  • 2 eggs
  • 250 ml milk
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 75 g brown sugar
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 2in/6cm thick slices of brioche bread you can also make 4 thinner slices

Para cocinarlas

  • Unsalted butter

For the peanut butter sauce

  • 6 tbsp peanut butter
  • 150 g maple syrup or other syrup / honey you like
  • 6 tbsp coconut cream

For the whipped cream

  • 200 ml whipping cream cold, straight from the fridge
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar
  • ½ vanilla pod, only the seeds or 1 tbsp vanilla paste, or 1 tsp vanilla extract or essence

To serve

  • toasted coconut flakes I like to toast them in a preheated oven at 180°C/350°F for 10-15min

Instructions

For the French Toast

  • In a bowl, combine all the ingredients except the bread with a whisk. You can also use a blender.
  • Soak the slices of bread for 2 hours on each side. You can also soak them overnight in the fridge and in the morning you turn them for 30min-1hr to get the other side as well. Here I recommend that at home it's easier to use thinner slices of bread so the soaking is just for a minute.

To cook them

  • Preheat a pan over medium heat, add a bit of butter and add the bread. Cook for 2-3min or until golden.
  • If you made thick slices, they bake in a preheated oven at 180°C/350°F for 10 minutes or 15 minutes if soaking overnight. If you used thinner slices, there's no need to bake in the oven.
  • Serve hot.

For the sauce

  • Warm up the peanut butter in the microwave.
  • Add a bit of the maple syrup at a time, whisking to mix.
  • Add the coconut cream and also whisk it in.

For the whipped cream

  • Beat the cream with the sugar and vanilla until fluffy.

Para servir

  • Serve the hot french toast with plenty of sauce, whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes.
