French toast with sourdough bread and coconut flakes

In French, the toast is called pain perdu which means lost bread. It implies that leftover, stale bread is turned into this eggy toast. In my sweet version, I added a dash of cinnamon and a smidgeon of shredded coconut.

The constituents of the gypsy bread..
Sourdough oats bread - 4 slices
Organic brown eggs - 1
Cinnamon, powdered - a pinch
Coconut flakes - a tad
Olive oil, extra virgin -  3 tsps
The process to arrive at the bombay toast...
Break egg and whisk it with cinnamon and coconut flakes. 
Heat a wide, flat saucepan and dribble oil. Tilt the pan so that the oil spreads to the sides. Dip bread slices in the eggy combination and place them gently on the hot oil. Cook on low flame for 5 minutes. Flip sides and toast for another 5 minutes more. Serve the palatable German toast with a touch of honey.
