Coconut Cherry French Toast

Coconut Cherry French Toast
(serves two)

Two large handfuls of fresh organic cherries, de-pitted

3 organic free-range eggs

4 pieces of gluten-free bread (I used rice bread)

1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk

1 TSP cinnamon

2 TBSP agave

Coconut oil

Shredded Coconut (garnish)

1. Mix eggs, coconut milk, cinnamon and agave in a bowl.

2. Dip bread in egg mixture and let sit for about 2 minutes.

3. Grill in a pan with coconut oil for about 3 minutes on each side.

4. Transfer bread to a plate and top with fresh cherries, shredded coconut and a drizzle of coconut oil.

This was one of the best french toast recipes I have ever had. The rice bread was moist and the flavor fit perfectly with the cherries and the coconut.

Thanks for the reminder....
