Description

Vanilla Brown Sugar Honey Butter Toast is a decadent breakfast or dessert treat made with thick slices of toasted bread slathered in a rich, creamy butter spread infused with vanilla, brown sugar, and honey. It caramelizes to golden perfection, delivering a sweet crunch in every bite.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 slices thick-cut bread (brioche, challah, or sourdough)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix softened butter, brown sugar, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt until smooth and well combined.
  2. Spread a generous layer of the honey butter mixture onto one side of each bread slice.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Place bread slices butter-side down in the skillet and cook for 2โ€“3 minutes until golden and caramelized.
  5. Flip and lightly toast the other side for 1โ€“2 minutes (optional).
  6. Serve warm, optionally topped with fresh fruit, a drizzle of extra honey, or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Use day-old or slightly stale bread for best texture.
  • For extra flavor, add a dash of cinnamon to the butter mix.
  • Pairs beautifully with coffee or tea as a morning treat.
  • Can be made in the oven under a broiler for a crispier finish.
