Toasted Sugar Bread with Honey – Breakfast with leftover bread

30 Comments

Weekend Breakfast Blogging #15 was announced by Nandita of Saffron Trail, almost a month back and the theme this month is leftovers. She also had a picture of a fridge full of leftover food, to get us thinking. Next day, I opened my fridge and was not really surprised to see just a couple of wilted tomatoes and a bottle of ginger-garlic paste in there. We only cook during weekends and we are experts at cooking for two. So I really had to struggle with coming up with an idea.

Then it struck me. We had some left over bread last Saturday and on Sunday, I took the few slices and made this really yummy snacky breakfast which was my second favourite ‘tuck’ for school. I have posted my favourite snack before – Ghee Roasted Bananas. You can also browse more snack recipes here.

Toasted Sugar Bread with Honey Recipe

 Ingredients:
Bread : 6 slices
Butter : 3 tbsp (unsalted tastes better)
Sugar : 2-3 tbsp
Honey : 1 tbsp (optional)

Instructions:

1. Add 1 tbsp butter to a pan and when it melts, put in the cubed bread slices. Don’t remove the sides of the bread, otherwise the bread will crumble into tiny pieces.

2. Keep stirring and toasting, adding on more butter as needed.

3. When the bread pieces turn golden brown, turn off fire and sprinkle with sugar. Toss the bread pieces till the sugar blends in. It will crystallize a little in the heat of the bread.

4. Dip in honey and eat warm. If you are not using honey, then add more sugar.

Simple, yummy and healthy 🙂

  3. Ruth – healthy is subjective ‘honey’ 🙂 There are people who say that an egg is not healthy because of the cholesterol content in the yolk, there are others who eat an egg every day for breakfast because its a healthy start to their day. To me, anything in moderation is fine. And its not like I projected this recipe as a healthy one. It was just a comment at the end.

    Also, butter in the right quantity IS good for our body.

    How about leaving your URL or email next time you decide to thumbs down a recipe of mine? Think you can do that?

  18. Nice entry! This sure looks delectable! if you like this…then try this…tear leftover white bread into little pieces, add milk and sugar, heat it a little bit so that the sugar dissolves and then enjoy! We often have this as a quick dessert 🙂

  25. I made something similar for my daughter but ended up eating it myself since she refused it. It tasted so good.. I couldn’t understand why she didn’t like it.
