Ingredients
Scale
Toast and Filling
- 2 thick slices of bread such as brioche, wheat or sourdough
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup, agave, honey, or melted chocolate, plus more for drizzling
- Pinch of cinnamon
Toppings
- Blueberries, strawberries, and/or raspberries, for topping
- Powdered sugar (optional)
- Toasted oats (optional)
- Dried coconut (optional)
- Chocolate shavings (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and mix custard: Preheat your oven to 400ºF or your air fryer to 375ºF. In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, egg, maple syrup (or your chosen sweetener), and a pinch of cinnamon until smooth and well combined.
- Create bread wells: Using your fingers or the back of a spoon, gently press the center of each slice of bread to create an indentation or well. Be careful not to tear the bread, as this space will hold the custard filling.
- Fill bread with custard and add berries: Evenly divide the custard mixture between the two bread wells, filling them generously. Top the filled bread with fresh blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, or a mix of your favorite berries.
- Cook the toast: If using the oven, arrange the prepared bread slices on a baking sheet and bake for 10 to 13 minutes or until the custard has set and the bread turns golden brown. If using an air fryer, carefully place the bread slices in the basket and cook for 7 to 10 minutes until the custard is set and the bread is golden.
- Serve and garnish: Transfer the yogurt toast to a plate. Drizzle your favorite syrup or melted chocolate over the top. Optionally, finish with a dusting of powdered sugar and sprinkle toasted oats, dried coconut, or chocolate shavings for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can swap the bread type to suit your taste—brioche is rich and soft, while sourdough adds a tangy flavor.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount or type of syrup used in the custard and for drizzling.
- Be gentle when creating wells in the bread to keep the base intact for holding custard.
- Fresh berries can be substituted or combined according to availability and preference.
- For a vegan option, substitute the egg and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives, though cooking times and textures might vary.
