Yogurt Toast is a simple and trendy breakfast featuring thick slices of bread filled with a creamy, lightly sweetened Greek yogurt custard. This easy-to-make dish is customizable with fresh fruit or other toppings, making it a perfect quick breakfast or snack that combines smooth yogurt with the comforting texture of toasted bread.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Base

  • 2 slices thick bread (brioche, sourdough, or Texas toast)

Yogurt Custard

  • ½ cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings (Optional)

  • Fresh berries or fruit

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the yogurt toast evenly.
  2. Create Wells in Bread: Press the center of each bread slice down gently with the back of a spoon to form a shallow well that will hold the yogurt mixture.
  3. Prepare Yogurt Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, egg, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Fill Bread Wells: Spoon the yogurt custard evenly into the wells created in each slice of bread, spreading it carefully to fill the indentation.
  5. Add Toppings: Optionally, top the filled bread with fresh berries or your choice of fruit for added flavor and texture.
  6. Bake: Place the yogurt-filled bread slices on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the yogurt filling is just set and lightly firm to the touch.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the toast to cool slightly before serving to enjoy the creamy, warm yogurt custard on crispy bread.

Notes

  • Use flavored Greek yogurt such as vanilla for extra sweetness and to enhance the custard flavor.
  • Feel free to add chocolate chips, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or chopped nuts into the yogurt mixture or on top for variety.
  • This recipe can also be cooked in an air fryer at 350°F for 8–10 minutes as a quicker alternative to oven baking.
  • Best enjoyed fresh to retain the creamy texture and crispness of the bread.
