The French bread baguette is cut diagonally to maximize its surface area, allowing it to soak up the delicious custard-like mixture of fat-free half-and-half, coconut extract, and vanilla extract. After a brief rest, the slices are cooked in a nonstick skillet, turning golden and crispy on the outside while staying soft and airy inside. A sprinkle of sweetened coconut adds a crunchy texture that perfectly complements the smoothness of the dish.
To complete this tropical delight, the warm Orange-Pineapple Syrup is drizzled over the French toast, providing a sweet, citrusy burst that enhances the overall flavor profile. With only 97 calories per serving, this dish is light enough for any morning, yet indulgent enough to feel like a special treat. Whether you're serving it for a group or enjoying it alone, Coconut French Toast with Warm Orange-Pineapple Syrup is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser that will make your breakfast or brunch unforgettable!
