Simple Bread Roll Toast Using Leftover Frozen Bread
The Perfect Transformation for Stale Frozen Bread! How to Make Delicious and Savory Bread Roll Toast
Even hard, frozen bread can be reborn as soft and tasty ‘Bread Roll Toast’ with this recipe. The fantastic combination of strawberry jam and a rich egg coating makes it a perfect snack for kids or a satisfying meal.
Main Ingredients- 8 slices of bread
- 3 eggs
- Strawberry jam, to taste (adjust according to preference)
- A little olive oil or cooking oil (for frying)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, carefully trim off the hard crusts from the edges of each bread slice with a knife. This step ensures a softer and more aesthetically pleasing roll.
Step 2
Place the trimmed bread slices on a cutting board. Using a rolling pin or the bottom of a clean glass, gently press down and flatten the bread until it’s thin. The thinner the bread, the tighter and neater your rolls will be.
Step 3
Now, let’s spread some strawberry jam on one side of the flattened bread. Be sure to leave about a 1cm border around the edges. Spreading the jam too close to the edges might cause it to ooze out when you roll the bread, affecting its appearance. Feel free to adjust the amount of jam to your liking.
Step 4
Starting from one end, carefully roll up the bread slice tightly. Begin with a slightly loose roll and then tighten it as you go to ensure the roll holds its shape well.
Step 5
Repeat this process with the remaining slices of bread, spreading jam and rolling them up to create a total of 8 bread rolls. Try to make each roll consistent in size and shape for a uniform presentation.
Step 6
In a wide bowl, whisk the 3 eggs until well beaten. Then, dip each prepared bread roll into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are thoroughly coated. A good egg coating will result in a more savory and crispy texture when cooked.
Step 7
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and add a generous amount of olive oil or cooking oil. Carefully place the egg-coated bread rolls onto the pan. Cooking on low heat allows the inside to warm through while achieving a beautiful golden-brown color without burning.
Step 8
Gently turn the bread rolls as they cook, ensuring all sides are evenly browned and toasted. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Alternatively, you can bake them in an oven or air fryer at 180°C (350°F) for 5-7 minutes for a convenient option.
Step 9
Once golden brown, remove the bread roll toasts from the pan and let them cool slightly. Then, slice them into bite-sized pieces, about 2-3 cm thick. You’ll have crispy exteriors and wonderfully moist interiors.
Step 10
Arrange the finished bread roll toasts on a plate. Serve them with a glass of warm milk or a cup of aromatic coffee for a delightful and filling breakfast or a satisfying snack for children!
