Coconut Pie Toast

By msippigrl

Tastes just like baked coconut pie! Sliced bread is topped with a homemade coconut pie filling and baked. Not too sweet so it's perfect for breakfast. It's the BEST stuff since... well, sliced bread!

Ingredients

• 1 stick (1/2 c) butter, melted (I used salted)
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup flaked coconut
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 12 slices bread (I used Dollar Tree wheat bread)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a large cookie sheet or jellyroll pan with foil for easy cleanup. Arrange bread on pan. Set aside.

Cut the butter in thin slices and place in a small bowl; microwave for about 15 seconds, or just until melted. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg; add the sugar, coconut, vanilla, and melted butter, stirring until well combined. Spread mixture on tops of bread slices.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or just until lightly browned. Serve warm with a glass of cold milk or hot, freshly brewed coffee. Scrumptious too at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream!!
