Crispy honey-butter toast with a caramelized glaze, creamy yogurt, and fresh berries—a quick, indulgent treat perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) light brown sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons (15g) honey, divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
  • 1 thick slice (2-inch) of brioche, challah, milk bread, or soft white bread
  • 1/4 cup (113g) Greek-style yogurt
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • Fresh berries, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Honey-Butter: Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment. In a bowl, mix butter, brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons honey, salt, cinnamon, and cardamom (if using).
  2. Coat the Bread: Spread a thin layer of the mixture on all sides of the bread. Place the bread on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Bake: Bake for 12-16 minutes until lightly golden. Flip and bake for another 5-7 minutes until evenly golden and crisp.
  4. Cool: Let the toast rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for another 10 minutes.
  5. Prepare the Topping: In a small bowl, whisk yogurt and vanilla bean paste until smooth. Stir in the remaining 1 teaspoon of honey without fully incorporating it to create a swirl.
  6. Assemble: Place the toast on a plate, dollop yogurt on top, and garnish with fresh berries. Drizzle with additional honey if desired. Serve immediately.
