Custard yogurt toast is a fun and tasty breakfast treat! It features creamy yogurt mixed with a sweet custard flavor, all sitting on crispy toast. It’s like dessert for breakfast!
Seriously, this dish makes mornings special. I love to sprinkle a little cinnamon on top for extra yum! It’s quick to make, so I can enjoy it even on busy days. 🥰
Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Raisin Bread: Raisin bread adds a nice sweetness and texture. If you don’t have it, any bread like brioche, challah, or even sourdough works well! I love brioche for its fluffy texture.
Yogurt: Plain yogurt keeps it simple, while vanilla yogurt adds extra sweetness. If you’re dairy-free, try coconut or almond yogurt. Both give a lovely creamy texture!
Custard Powder: Custard powder is great for this recipe. If you can’t find it, try using instant pudding mix in a similar flavor. It won’t be exactly the same, but will work well!
Fresh Raspberries: These are fun for topping, but if you don’t have raspberries, blueberries, sliced strawberries, or even banana for a different twist will do just fine.
What’s the Best Way to Prepare Custard Yogurt?
The custard yogurt mixture is a star of this toast, and getting it right is key! Follow these steps for a smooth and creamy topping:
- In a bowl, whisk custard powder with sugar and milk until there are no lumps.
- Gently heat in a saucepan on low, stirring constantly for about 3-5 minutes, until slightly thickened.
- Remove it from heat and let it cool for a few minutes before stirring in the yogurt. This keeps it creamy without curdling.
Stir it well so that everything combines nicely. You want a smooth texture that will pour over the bread easily!

Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare the Custard Yogurt Mixture:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the custard powder, milk, and sugar until it’s nice and smooth. Then, pour this mixture into a saucepan and warm it over low heat. Keep stirring gently as it thickens, which should take about 3-5 minutes. Once it’s thickened a bit, take it off the heat and let it cool slightly.
2. Mix in the Yogurt:
After allowing the custard mixture to cool a little (but it should still be pourable), stir in the yogurt. Mix until everything is well combined and you have a nice creamy topping that’s ready to go!
3. Toast the Bread:
Take your slices of raisin bread and toast them until they are golden brown and nice and crispy. If you’d like, you can spread a little butter on the hot toast for extra flavor!
4. Assemble the Toast:
Now, pour or spread that lovely custard yogurt mixture generously over your toasted bread. Don’t be shy; make it as thick as you like!
5. Add the Toppings:
To finish, sprinkle fresh raspberries over the top of each slice. They add a tasty burst and a lovely color!
6. Serve and Enjoy:
Serve your Custard Yogurt Toast immediately! You can complement it with fresh strawberries on the side for a little extra sweetness and color. Enjoy your delicious creation!
Can I Use Different Types of Bread?
Absolutely! While raisin bread adds a delightful sweetness, any bread like brioche, white, or whole grain will work well. Just choose your favorite type for the best flavor!
How Do I Store Leftovers?
If you have leftovers, store the custard yogurt mixture and toast separately in airtight containers. The mixture can be refrigerated for up to 2 days, while the toast is best eaten fresh. Reheat the toast briefly in a toaster for a nice crisp texture!
Can I Make the Custard Yogurt Mixture in Advance?
Yes! You can prepare the custard yogurt mixture a day ahead. Just store it in the fridge in an airtight container. Stir it well before using, and it should still be delicious!
Can I Customize the Toppings?
Of course! Feel free to use other fruits like bananas, blueberries, or even a sprinkle of nuts for added crunch. Get creative with your toppings to match your taste!
