Receta HOW TO MAKE OLD FASHIONED MILK TOAST
Posted on February 16, 2017 by The Southern Lady in FOOD TIPS this post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure for more information. Milk Toast was thought to be helpful years ago if you had an upset stomach and could not or would not eat normal food. Parents made it for sick children because it would entice them with a sugary milk taste. My father thought chicken noodle soup along with some ice cream would cure anything! It was almost worth getting sick to get these sugary treats. There are many ways to make milk toast but the first one is my personal favorite. Milk toast makes a quick lunch or breakfast if you are in a hurry. Most children love it if they like milk.
You will need:
Bread (Can use white bread, wheat bread, self-rising or whatever you like)
Butter
Milk
Brown Sugar
Ground Cinnamon
Ground Nutmeg
Toast the bread until crispy using the oven or toaster. I toast 2 slices for one person and use 1/2 to 1 cup milk. Butter the bread and sprinkle on brown sugar, a pinch of ground cinnamon and nutmeg. I use about 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg for 2 pieces of toast. Heat the milk on the stove or in the microwave and pull the toast apart in pieces and put in warm milk. Enjoy!
Some people use white granulated sugar instead of brown sugar. You can also make this by buttering the toast, heating the milk, adding salt and pepper to the milk and leaving off the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Vanilla extract can be added to the milk if you like. Another way is to butter the toast, float the slice of toast in the milk and add a fried or poached egg on top.
You don’t need a recipe for this. You can just make it to your individual taste.
If you have not tried this on your children or grandchildren, let them help you make it for a treat.
