Main Ingredients- 1 slice of bread (choose your preferred thickness)

Cream & Sweetness- 200ml heavy cream (ensure it’s cold for whipping)
- 10g granulated sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference)
- 200ml heavy cream (ensure it’s cold for whipping)
- 10g granulated sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your slice of bread. Toast it until golden brown and slightly crispy, either in a pan or an oven. This step adds a wonderful texture contrast to the creamy topping. Be sure to toast it over medium heat to prevent burning.
Step 2
Gently wash the strawberries under running water, remove the green tops, and slice them about 0.5 cm thick. Try to keep the slices relatively uniform so they arrange nicely on the toast.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, pour in the cold heavy cream. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, start whipping the cream. Once it begins to thicken, gradually add the sugar in 2-3 additions, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form. You want the cream to be firm and hold its shape well, almost like meringue!
Step 4
Generously spread the whipped cream over the toasted bread. Artfully arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the cream. Don’t be shy with the strawberries; a generous topping makes it look even more inviting!
Step 5
Enjoy your delightful Creamy Strawberry Toast with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee. My daughter loved it so much she ate both slices before I could even take a proper photo! It’s a truly happy ending. Give it a try and create your own moment of joy!
