And in case you’re wondering about the Christmas Day French Toast recipe, here’s the sweet version*:

What you need:

• Two large whole eggs
• Two large egg whites
• 3/4 cups of skim or 1% milk
• 1/2 tablespoons of vanilla extract
• Six to eight slices of coconut bread (depending on the size)
• 1/2 cup each of raspberries and blueberries* (frozen okay)

Directions

• Mix the eggs, vanilla and milk in a bowl
• Soak the slices of bread and place them in a lightly greased baking dish
• Top the bread with the berries, if you’re using them
• Bake for 25 minutes at 375 F and then switch to broil for five minutes

This recipe should feed two to four people.  There is no need to add sugar as the bread is already sweet itself.

The savoury version uses the same custard mix minus vanilla (sub with garlic powder and a few grinds of black pepper) and is topped with bocconcini and tomatoes. You can add some basil after it’s out of the oven.
