Milk toast is an old fashioned breakfast dish that is so easy to make! I love having bread soaked in milk. This recipe uses toasted cinnamon sugar brioche bread.

Chase on 2024-01-08 (5 stars): That is how my grandmother served it to me when I was a child. The warm milk with butter and sugar was one of my favorite snacks after school. I still eat it as an adult every now and then. I knew it as milk toast.
Harmony West on 2023-08-08 (5 stars): mmmm! Yes! We didn't have much money growing up and we called this "toast, butter, milk and sugar", said very fast like one connected word. We used my mom's homemade whole wheat bread, brown sugar, butter, with hot milk poured over. It was one od our staple meals that we ate frequently. I haven't eaten this in probably 35-40 years, but I remember the taste clearly.
AmberLynn on 2021-06-08 (4 stars): Just made this for the first time ever. I'd vaguely heard of it, but I just got my tooth pulled and on the care instructions it lists suggested foods and it was on there and decided to try it. I enjoyed it a lot. I just melted butter and then grilled toast. Then added sugar and cinnamon, cut and added the milk. I only has 1% but I think with whole it would be even better. 4/5 Will devour again!
Julie Tremblay on 2020-12-16 (5 stars): I was looking for this! Used to eat this as a kid, white bread, milk and brown sugar!
Rachel Roescher on 2020-10-08 (5 stars): This is super similar to a dish my grandfather made me for breakfast as a child. (Sweet milk toast) We are from the south so the key ingredient was day old biscuits, cut in half and topped with cheddar cheese before toasting until melty! We warmed milk with butter, salt and pepper and voila!
