Instructions
Jamaican Coconut Toast
  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Prepare ingredients.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt. Add egg and continue to whisk until combined.
  3. Stir coconut into the mixture until combined.
  4. Lay the bread slices on to a baking sheet. Divide the coconut spread into 8 equal portions. Spread 1 portion of the mixture on the top of each bread slice and lay them on a baking sheet.
  5. Bake 12 minutes or until the bread begins to turn lightly golden brown, being careful not overbake. Remove the pan from oven, turn the bread over and spread remaining coconut portions on top of each piece. Continue to bake 5 to 8 minutes or until the bread turns light golden brown. Remove from oven and transfer the toast to a cutting board and cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
  6. When the toast is slightly cooled, cut each slice into 3 equal strips using a sharp knife.
  7. Serve warm with tropical cream cheese dip.

Recipe Notes

IDEAS!

  • You may use any type of white bread you prefer. I chose Brioche because of its soft tender texture and rich buttery flavor. The final result in this recipe creates a crispy sweet outside and soft buttery inside.
  • This bread is so delightfully unique that it can be served as a sweet appetizer, a dessert with tea, or as a side to meals that call for a sweeter bread.
