This delicious treat features a rich, creamy custard filling topped with fresh, juicy berries for a perfect balance of sweetness and texture.

Ingredients

  • Loaf of Bread – I recommend using a loaf that you have to slice yourself so you can get the slices thick enough to hold the custard. Standard pre-sliced loafs will be too thin.

  • 1 egg

  • 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt

  • Vanilla extract to taste

  • Fresh fruit of your choice for topping- I used raspberries, strawberries and blueberries

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 400° F
  • Prepare the bread
    -Slice your loaf of bread into 3/4 inch slices (you’ll want at least 1/2 inch) and use the back of a spoon to push down the bread and create a well for the custard. Be sure not to make your well to close to the edge or the custard will spill out.
  • Make the custard
    -Combine the egg, yogurt and vanilla until smooth and spoon into the well that was just created.
  • Top with fruit
    -Add your fruit right on top of the custard. You may want to cut larger fruits into thin or bite size pieces.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes
    -When the toast is done you can add a drizzle of honey or a dusting of powdered sugar if you’d like.

Notes

  • Swap the base – Try this with different flavored yogurts as the custard base.
  • Make ahead – This custard can be made in advance and stored in the fridge.
  • Air Fry it – Skip preheating the oven and finish these in the air fryer.
