Long loaf croutons with egg

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 15 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make croutons from a loaf with an egg? Prepare the products according to the list. The bread for croutons can be fresh, or slightly dried; in addition, some people make croutons with black bread, with bran bread, etc. I will prepare the simplest croutons, but you can also make sweet ones, so you can use sugar to taste. Prepare a deep, wide bowl and frying pan.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut a loaf of white bread into slices 1 centimeter thick, I take the slices straight away. In a deep bowl, lightly beat the egg, add salt or sugar if you are making sweet croutons. Pour in the milk and mix everything.

3. STEP 3

   

   Dip each slice of bread into the mixture until thoroughly coated.

4. STEP 4

   

   Place the frying pan over medium heat, add the butter and wait until it melts completely.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place slices of bread in the egg mixture on a frying pan heated with oil and fry until a yellow-golden crust forms, first on one side, then, carefully turning over, on the other side. The heat should be medium so that the bread does not quickly fry and the oil does not give off an unpleasant smell.

6. STEP 6

   

   Serve the finished loaf croutons with egg and milk immediately. This is a separate dish. You can offer it with sausages, porridge, or simply add sugar, jam, or honey. Serve with hot tea or coffee. Bon appetit!

Simple, practical recipe, thank you. And if you add sugar to the egg-milk mixture, the croutons will be sweet. Just what you need for tea.

I also often make unsweetened croutons for breakfast or a snack. We eat them just like that or make sandwiches with cheese, sausage, or cream cheese. We also dip it in ketchup or sour cream, there are many options) This recipe makes very tender and appetizing croutons. Frying in butter gives it a creamy taste. I fried it over low heat so that the oil did not burn, and also added a little vegetable oil to the frying pan. Croutons even look different when fried in different types of oil. The ratio of milk and eggs suited me; the croutons turned out more eggy. Delicious snack for the whole family)
