Honey Toast with Vanilla Ice Cream
Ingredients
- Small 1/2 loaf of white bread (unsliced if available), preferably from an Asian bakery or use thick Hawaiian style bread
- 2 tbsp butter
- honey
- 1-2 scoops of vanilla ice cream
- Heat oven to 360 degrees F
- Cut loaf of bread in half
- Gently cut the soft center bread out, leaving enough on the sides to provide a strong base.
- Take the soft center piece and cut it into 2 or 4 symmetrical pieces (depending on the shape and size of bread loaf)
- Spread butter on all pieces, including the insides of the hollowed out base
- Place all the bread on a cookie sheet or oven safe dish and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Be sure to watch the bread as it starts to brown so it does not burn.
- Remove from oven drizzle desired amount of honey inside the base and on the sides. Gently place the loose pieces of bread back inside, being careful not to burn yourself.
- Drizzle more honey on top of the bread pieces
- Top with 1-2 scoops of vanilla ice cream
- Serve immediately while still warm
Variations on the Original Honey Toast Recipe
Some people have taken this basic recipe and added their own unique variations on the simple dessert. One delicious idea is to use sliced bananas, chocolate, and banana ice cream instead of the honey and vanilla ice cream.Another suggestion is to discard the center bread pieces and fill with fresh fruit like raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries. Top with fresh vanilla bean ice cream and a dollop of fresh whipped cream.
