Cinnamon Toast with Butter and Honey

Source of Recipe

From "Williams-Sonoma: Breakfast Comforts" by Rick Rodgers


Recipe Introduction

"The scent of cinnamon always seems to evoke happy memories of comforting breakfasts. This is a childhood classic that's too good to skimp on ingredients: make your toast with bakery-fresh bread, luscious European-style butter, and fragrant, high-quality cinnamon. For the sweet accent, I prefer to use honey rather than granulated sugar."

List of Ingredients

• ½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 2 tsp mild honey
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 8 slices good-quality white sandwich bread


Recipe

Preheat the broiler. Have ready a rimmed baking sheet. In a small bowl, using a fork or rubber spatula, mash together the butter, honey, and cinnamon.

Arrange the bread on the baking sheet. Broil until the bread is toasted, about 1 minute. Remove from the broiler and flip the bread over. Spread equal amounts of the cinnamon butter over the untoasted sides of the bread.

Return to the broiler and broil until the cinnamon butter is bubbling and the edges of the bread are toasted, about 1 minute. Serve hot.
