This Yogurt Toast (aka Custard Toast) is a popular breakfast recipe that's been popular on TikTok and is made with bread, egg, yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla, and toppings like berries and chocolate chips.

Ingredients  

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 slices bread see notes
  • berries fresh or frozen, optional topping
  • chocolate chips optional topping
  • powdered sugar optional topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. There's no need to preheat if using an air fryer.
  • In a small bowl, beat together the egg, yogurt, syrup, and vanilla until combined.
  • Place the slices of bread on a small baking sheet and use the back of a spoon or fork to indent the center of the bread, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  • Spoon the custard mixture into the wells of the bread and then top with berries or chocolate chips.
  • Oven: Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until the custard is set and the edges of the toast are crisp.
  • Air Fryer: Air Fry at 350°F for 6 minutes. Cook for additional 1-minute increments until the custard has set. Cook time can vary depending on the air fryer.
  • Dust with powdered sugar if desired and enjoy.

Notes

  • Feel free to use vanilla or fruit-flavored yogurt - but Greek is key to that thick custard-like texture.
  • Vanilla extract can be omitted if using a flavored yogurt.
  • Honey or agave can be substituted for maple syrup.
  • You could prepare the custard mixture in advance and store it in the refrigerator until ready to use, however, I wouldn’t add it to the bread and cook it until just before you’re ready to enjoy it.
  • The base of this recipe is the toast itself. You want to make sure to use a thick bread that can be pressed down to create a well that’s deep enough to hold the custard mixture. I used Sara Lee Artesano Bread, but any thick and fluffy bread will do. Brioche would be delicious!
  • Feel free to add a 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the filling.
