Coconut French Toast

I made this today and used regular bread I needed to use. Overall I think it was quite yummy!

Ingredients:
2 large egg whites
1 large egg
1/2 cup cream of coconut (can't find? substitue 3/4 cup light coconut milk and 1/2 t. coconut extract)
1 small (12-inch) French bread loaf, cut into 3/4 inch thick slices (about 16)
3/4 cups sweetened flake coconut, toasted
powdered sugar (optional)
fresh fruit for topping (optional)

Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 250 degrees. Place a baking sheet in the oven.
2. Combine egg whites, egg, and cream of coconut in bowl and whisk until smooth. (I added some milk too to think out the mixture.) Place egg mixture in shallow dish. Dip bread slices in egg mixture and coat both sides.
3. Coat a large pan with butter or nonstick spray. Heat over medium high heat. Add bread slices and cook unti lightly browned. Transer for baking sheet to keep warm. Repeat with remaining slices.
4. Top each serving with 1/2 T. toasted coconut and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired. Top with fruit, if desired.
