Ingredients

  • 50 g Bread, wheat
  • 10 g Butter, NFS
  • 15 g Jam

Method

  1. Toast the Bread Place the bread slice in a toaster or on a hot skillet. Toast for 1–2 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
  2. While the toast is still warm, spread 10g of butter evenly over one side of the bread. Allow the butter to melt slightly for a rich flavor.
  3. Add Jam Spoon 15g of your favorite jam onto the buttered toast. Spread the jam evenly or leave it in dollops, depending on your preference.
  4. Serve Serve immediately on a plate. Pair with a hot beverage like tea or coffee for a complete breakfast experience.
  5. Best Practices Jam Selection: Use a high-quality fruit jam for the best flavor. Popular choices include strawberry, raspberry, or apricot. Bread Options: Whole grain, sourdough, or brioche work well for added variety. Butter Alternatives: Use plant-based butter for a dairy-free option.
  6. Chef's Notes Crunch Factor: For extra texture, lightly toast the bread on a skillet with a little butter. Flavor Boost: Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt or cinnamon on top for added flavor complexity.
