Croutons from grain bread

3 servings

10 minutes

Grilled bread from grain bread is a simple yet exquisite breakfast filled with coziness and warmth. This recipe has roots in European cuisines where baked bread with aromatic spices is valued for its crispy texture and rich flavor. Butter and vegetable oil give the dish a pleasant tenderness, while egg and milk create a golden crust. Provencal herbs add a touch of Mediterranean freshness, making the toast perfect as a standalone dish or an accompaniment to morning coffee. They are great with sweet toppings like honey and fruits as well as savory sauces. These toasts are not just food but an opportunity to momentarily taste traditional cuisine that unites generations.
