    Yogurt Custard Toast

    Yogurt Custard Toast, the new Viral Tik Tok trend, is definitely a keeper! I know many of you are skeptical about it, but this is simply an easy, healthy version of french-toast. How can you go wrong with that? Infact, it's almost like having dessert for breakfast, without all the extra calories!

     yogurt custard toast

    I decided to bring in an element of my Pakistani roots to the recipe by adding some saffron, cardamom and pistachios to my yogurt custard toast. This gives the toast a flavor similar to one of my favorite desserts, Shahi Tukray and pairs perfectly with the blood red oranges that are in season.

    Although most yogurt toast recipes call for soft bread, I decided to keep it healthy by using whole grain raisin bread. Lower in calories and nutritionally dense, it makes for a great start to the day. Plus, the raisins add a bit more depth of flavor to the already delicious recipe.

    The Recipe

    The basic yogurt toast recipe is simple and requires only a few ingredients. However, this recipe is an easy one to play around with and create some fun variations! Check out fedandfit.com for some great sweet and savory ideas!

    The Ingredients

    The Bread

    I've chosen to use a whole grain raisin bread for my yogurt toast, despite the fact that most recipes suggest a softer bread. Everything from soft brioche, sour dough, plain white and even gluten free bread can be used.

    The Egg

    The egg is the most essential ingredient in this recipe. The custard will not set without one and will be too firm with the use of too many. The perfect ratio is 1 egg to 3 slices of bread. For those who avoid eggs, just use a substitute, such as a flax egg.

    The Yogurt

    I like to use plain Greek Yogurt and flavor it myself. However, regular yogurt as well as flavored yogurt are all options depending on your preferences.

    The Sweetener

    I love honey and it marries well with the other flavors in this recipe. Other options are maple syrup, agave, stevia, regular or brown sugar or nothing at all! Especially if you are using flavored yogurt, which tends to be presweetened.

    The Flavorings

    Here the options are limitless. Vanilla, cinnamon, lemon zest are just amongst some of the more popular options used in this recipe. Of course, it depends largely on the type of bread, yogurt and fruit you're using. Just use whatever pairs together best.

    The Toppings

    I like to go with what's seasonal as in this case. In fact, in this recipe I worked in reverse and let my seasonal fruit define my other ingredient selections.

    Have fun with this super easy recipe and share all your creative pictures on social media! A rating and comment below would also be appreciated. Thank You and happy baking!
