Baked Yogurt Custard Toast Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons of softened, unsalted butter
- 4 large, thick slices of French bread
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon of lemon zest
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt
Fruit Topping (optional):
- 1 cup of blueberries
- 1 cup of quartered strawberries
- 1/3 cup of maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice
Directions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Step 2: Spread butter on one side of the bread slices and place them butter-side-down on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3: In a mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, lemon zest, egg, and salt. Ensure the custard mixture is well combined. Spoon the custard mixture over the bread, covering it entirely and pressing down gently to aid absorption. Use all the custard for an even coating.
Step 4: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the toast turns golden brown.
Step 5: While the toast is baking, combine blueberries, strawberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice in a bowl. Set the fruit mixture aside until it is ready to be used.
Step 6: Serve the custard toast immediately, topped with the fresh fruit mixture.
