3. Cook the French Toast
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tbsp coconut oil.
  2. Dip each bread slice into the chocolate mixture, coating both sides. Let excess drip off.
  3. Cook slices in the skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining bread, adding more oil as needed.
4. Make Cinnamon Coconut Whipped Cream
