Sunday morning again!! I’m into something new, healthy, fresh and filling. I looked in my fridge and found bread, eggs, milk and some red fruit. Oatmeal? No, something new French Toast; or in Holland we call them Wentelteefjes. This meal is actually not new at all; the basis is very old. My grandmother used to make this tasty dish of older bread. In 10 minutes you have a tasty and good looking breakfast or lunch on a plate. See below what ingredients you need for this old school but delicious breakfast recipe.

How to make the French Toasts?
It can’t be easier than this!! In the flat bowl, whisk the egg, milk and cinnamon together. Soak the slices of bread in the mixture. Heat up the frying pan with the coconut oil and fry the bread slices till they get a bit brown on both sides.
Decorate the bread on the serving plate, put the coconut yogurt in the middle and the fruit on top of the bread. Finish off with some honey and coconut flakes.
Enjoy your colorful breakfasts!!!
