Description
Crispy cheese milk toast features a golden crust and soft center. This recipe uses a stovetop method with milk, butter, and melted cheese for quick comfort food.
Ingredients
- 4 slices sandwich bread (about 1/2 inch thick)
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Lay the bread slices on a plate in a single layer.
- Brush the milk lightly over both sides of each slice and let absorb for 30 seconds.
- In a small bowl mix the cheese, mayonnaise, and salt until combined.
- Spread the cheese mixture evenly over one side of each slice.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium low heat.
- Melt the butter and swirl to coat the skillet.
- Place the bread slices cheese side up in the skillet.
- Cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the bottoms are golden.
- Uncover, flip carefully, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the cheese side is crisp and lightly golden.
- Remove from the skillet and serve hot.
Notes
- Use sandwich bread about 1/2 inch thick for best results.
- Do not skip the milk soak; it keeps the inside tender.
- Cook over medium low heat to prevent burning the bread before the cheese melts.
