04 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
05 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 - Pinch sea salt

03 - Arrange bread slices on the prepared baking sheet. Using the back of a spoon, gently press down the center of each slice to form a shallow well, preserving the outer edges.
04 - Spoon the custard mixture evenly into the wells of each bread slice.
05 - Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the custard is just set and the edges of the bread turn golden.
06 - Remove from oven and allow to cool briefly. Top each toast with diced mango, diced pineapple, sliced kiwi, shredded coconut, and lime zest.
07 - Drizzle with extra honey or maple syrup if desired, and serve immediately.
