Coconut Toast
If you like coconut, you are going to love this toast. Once the toping gets brown, the sugar converts everything to a lovely nutty and slightly crunchy sweet bread that is great for a breakfast treat or for your next party as an appetizer. I use English muffin bread to make mine. Regular bread is sometimes too soft and does not have the body to support the coconut topping. Find a bread that is heavier and can hold up to the extra weight.
1 cup flaked coconut
1 cup sugar
½ cup butter or margarine, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 t. vanilla
12 slices white bread
In a bowl combine coconut, sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla; mix well. Spread over each slice of bread. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until lightly brown. Watch that bread does not get too brown at the end of the baking time. Enjoy!
