Notes
- Nutrition information is an estimate and will depend on your specific ingredients.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking French toast. Cook a few slices at a time to ensure they cook evenly and get that golden-brown crust on each side.
- Use medium heat so the coconut oil does not burn
- Do not oversoak the bread to keep the texture fluffy
- Add more coconut oil between batches if needed
- Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Freeze for later: Let the slices cool completely, then layer them with parchment paper and store in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months.
- Reheat in a toaster, air fryer, or skillet to bring back the crisp edges-avoid the microwave to prevent sogginess.
