Crispy, golden-brown toast slathered with rich, melted butter. A simple, classic, and comforting breakfast or snack that's ready in just 5 minutes.
For 2 servings
Take two slices of bread. Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of softened butter evenly on one side of each slice.
Heat a non-stick pan or a tawa over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the bread slices butter-side down onto the pan.
Toast for 1-2 minutes, or until the bottom side is golden brown and crisp. You can gently press down on the bread with a spatula for even toasting.
While the first side is toasting, spread the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter for this batch on the top, unbuttered side of the bread slices.
Flip the slices and toast the other side for another 1-2 minutes until it's also golden brown and crisp.
Remove the toast from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining two slices of bread and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Serve immediately while hot and crispy for the best texture.

Butter toast can be part of a balanced diet when eaten in moderation. It provides quick energy from carbohydrates. To make it healthier, opt for whole-wheat or multigrain bread to increase fiber content. Be mindful of the amount of butter used as it is high in saturated fat.
One serving, which consists of two slices of butter toast, typically contains between 250-300 calories. The exact number can vary based on the type and thickness of the bread and the amount of butter used.
Absolutely. You can toast the bread slices in a regular toaster until golden brown. Once they pop up, immediately spread the softened butter on top while the toast is hot so it melts into the bread. Pan-frying creates a slightly richer, more fried texture.
A sturdy, thick-sliced bread works best as it holds up well to the butter and pan-frying without becoming soggy. Brioche, sourdough, Texas toast, or a classic white sandwich loaf are all excellent choices.
The key is to control the heat. Use a consistent medium flame. If the pan is too hot, the butter will burn quickly. If it's too low, the bread will dry out before it browns. Keep a close eye on it and adjust the heat as needed.
