Ingredients

Scale

Basic Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole milk (or any preferred milk)
  • 2 slices soft white bread or sandwich bread
  • Pinch of sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Toast the Bread: Start by lightly toasting your bread slices until they turn just golden while retaining slight softness. This helps the bread absorb the warm milk perfectly without becoming mushy.
  2. Heat the Milk: Warm the milk gently in a saucepan over medium heat. Add a pinch of sugar and salt as it heats, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and enhance flavor.
  3. Assemble the Milk Toast: Place the toasted bread in a shallow bowl and pour the warm milk evenly over it, allowing the bread to soak up the creamy milk slowly.
  4. Add Butter: Top the soaked toast with a small pat of butter so it melts into the milk and bread, enriching every bite with buttery silkiness.
  5. Serve Immediately: Serve your Milk Toast while warm to enjoy the soft texture and comforting creaminess at its best.

Notes

  • Choose fresh or day-old bread for best soaking without falling apart.
  • Warm milk slowly to avoid boiling and preserve flavor.
  • Use good quality butter for richer taste and smooth melting.
  • Slightly thicker bread slices soak up more milk for creamier texture.
  • Serve immediately to prevent sogginess and enjoy optimal texture.
