# Ingredient list:

→ For the Toast

01 - 4 thick slices brioche or sturdy sourdough bread
02 - 1 large egg
03 - 1/2 cup coconut yogurt, unsweetened or lightly sweetened
04 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
05 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 - Pinch of sea salt

→ Toppings

07 - 1/2 mango, peeled and diced
08 - 1/2 cup fresh pineapple, diced
09 - 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced
10 - 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
11 - Zest of 1 lime
12 - Extra honey or maple syrup for drizzling, optional

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Whisk together the egg, coconut yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt in a mixing bowl until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
03 - Arrange the bread slices on the prepared baking sheet. With the back of a spoon, gently press the center of each slice to create a shallow well, keeping an intact border around the edges.
04 - Spoon the coconut yogurt custard evenly into the wells of each bread slice.
05 - Transfer to the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the custard is set and bread edges are golden.
06 - Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Top each toast with mango, pineapple, kiwi, shredded coconut, and lime zest.
07 - Drizzle with additional honey or maple syrup if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
