Ingredients
  

  • 400 ml full-fat coconut milk or light coconut milk
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ¼ cup agave nectar, maple syrup, or honey
  • 3 tablespoons raw sugar plus extra for sprinkling
  • 7 large eggs preferably pasture-raised
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 4 thick slices crusty bread
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter or coconut oil
  • Optional toppings Whipped coconut cream, toasted coconut flakes, maple syrup

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Skillet preferably oven-safe
  • Baking sheet (optional)

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, almond milk, vanilla extract, raw sugar, agave nectar, eggs, and sea salt until smooth.
  2. Place the bread slices in a shallow dish and pour the batter over them, letting them soak for 5–10 minutes while flipping halfway.
  3. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add vegan butter or coconut oil.
  4. Sprinkle raw sugar on one side of each bread slice and place them sugary-side down in the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Flip the bread slices, sprinkle sugar on the other side, and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 12–15 minutes until puffed and caramelized.

Notes

For a lighter version, use whole-grain bread or light coconut milk. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat gently in the oven or toaster oven. Don’t skip the caramelization step, as it adds a delicious crunch!
