Common Questions
- → Can I use regular yogurt instead of coconut yogurt?
Yes, regular dairy or plant-based yogurts work. Coconut adds a tropical flair, but others will also turn out creamy.
- → What bread is best for this dish?
Brioche and sturdy sourdough are ideal due to their thickness and ability to hold the custard mixture without becoming soggy.
- → How do I make this vegan?
Replace the egg with 1 tbsp cornstarch and 2 tbsp plant-based milk, and use vegan yogurt and syrup for a fully plant-based option.
- → Can I prepare this ahead of time?
It’s best enjoyed fresh, but you can prep the yogurt custard and chop fruit ahead for quick assembly and baking in the morning.
- → Which fruits pair well besides those listed?
Papaya, banana, or passionfruit make excellent alternatives for topping, boosting tropical freshness and color.
- → How do I prevent sogginess?
Press a shallow well into the bread but keep a border to contain custard and avoid over-soaking. Bake promptly for best texture.
