Preheat your oven to 230°C (200°C fan assisted) Heat an oven-safe pan over medium-high heat and add the butter or coconut oil. In the meantime, sprinkle some sugar on top of the bread slices. Working quickly, place the bread in the pan sugar side down and cook for about five minutes or until golden brown. Sugar the top side. Flip the bread over and transfer the pan(s) to the oven until cooked through - about 12-15 minutes. Your bread should have nice, dark golden brown colour and be puffed up. Carefully remove from oven and plate. Serve with your toppings of choice!
