Piña Colada French Toast

Piña Colada French Toast

Sing with me… “If you like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain….If you’re not into yoga, if you have half a brain..”

Ok..so I MAY only have half a brain – but the half that is functioning came up with THIS!

I love Piña Coladas. I love the pineapple, coconout and rum flavours! It would have to be one of my favourite cocktails…and I have a few. But Piña Coladas take the CAKE!

MY LATEST VIDEOS

Speaking of cake..this is what these French Toasts taste like. Spongey and fluffy coconut and rum flavoured cake-like french toasts! Stuffed with a rum infused coconutt-y creamy filling! ANd the juicy chunks of pineapple just SET.THIS.OFF!!

And how did I think up this recipe?

Well, I was thinking and thinking HOW to convert french toast into a Piña Colada? But HOW Karina? THINK!

Maybe if I swap out normal milk for coconut milk…and maybe if I had pineapple in the egg wash like I added the mashed banana in to my Banana Bread French Toasts, and maybe if I add a liiiitte rummmm! Yeaaahhh that should do it!

So..I did it.

What a beautiful and decadent way to wake up and start the day. Rum. Rum. Rum. Did I mention Rum?

I would say the rum is optional…well it COULD be, but that takes the fun out of it! But it is optional. (Not really).
