Sometimes I want something a little more complicated. Something that I can really get my hands in while in the kitchen. Something I can stir, or chop, or watch as it bubbles away on the stove.
And sometimes, I just need simple. Actually, most of the time these days, I just need simple. And it doesn’t get much simpler than this breakfast treat.
Not only is this simple, but it will totally revolutionize your morning toast routine. Three words:
Sweetened. Condensed. Milk.
Yep. For breakfast. Slathered on a thick slice of toasted brioche. Whoever it is that comes up with these recipes for the Rachael Ray magazine? Geniuses.
I actually don’t know where to buy brioche close to me, so I decided to make my own – just so that I could get the full effect of this recipe. And my bread got a little bit toasty brown on top. That is why it looks burnt in these photos, but believe me – it was absolutley delicious. And if you don’t have brioche, I tried it with regular bread as well, and it was also delicious. Maybe not quite as indulgent as the brioche, but then again, you probably shave off a ton of calories by using a slice of whole wheat bread instead of rich, buttery brioche. 
So what are you waiting for? Get into the kitchen and give this a try!
This delicious breakfast treat comes together in only minutes. It's best made with brioche or challah, but works well on regular sandwich bread, as well!
Ingredients
- 1 3/4-inch thick slice challah or brioche
- 1/2 tablespoon butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Toast the bread. Spread with butter while still hot, then spread on condensed milk. Put it under the broiler until it is browned.

Oh my goodness…I have to try this. I am not sure where to find Brioche either. We have a French bakery nearby – now I want to find some! Rachael did a bunch of different “recipes” with the new Sara Lee Pound Cake Slices yesterday and they sounded yummy like this does….
Easy, peasy, and delicious! I have never tried this before and it sounds delightful.
I saw this recipe in my magazine and was totally enamored with it. This looks so good. I’ll definitely be trying it.
I love putting condensed milk on my toast. I first discovered it when I was in 9th grade and I slept over a friends house. When we woke up, her mom made us breakfast and she gave us toast with some white jam looking thing. I gave it a try and I was in heaven! Best thing you could eat that can be made in 30 seconds.
YUM this looks so good. I love sweetened condensed milk!
YUM! I’m a big lover of toast! To bad my husband just used the last of of my canned sweetened condensed milk for flan or I would had this to eat this morning
This is certainly different, but it sounds so good! I never would have thought of putting condensed milk on toast – and toasted brioche at that! Yum!
Yum! I think this would taste excellent with the addition of a little sprinkle of cinnamon.
A perfect breakfast I could assemble in no time and yet get all the praises for the same
Mmm, brioche! So rich and tasty.
i’ve had condensed milk on toast as a kid….i think it’s an asian thing. try it with peanut butter…..yummy.
oh. my. word.
This is such a great idea!! I love sweetened condensed milk so much… I practically lick the can clean when I use it in any recipes.
Yum!! Sounds delicious! We actually make a dessert with bread and condensed milk. Though very rich, it is incredibly delicious! Deep fried bread is soaked in a mixture of condensed milk and milk, infused with saffron and cardamom. Try it if you ever feel evil and want to indulge! You may easily substitute the cardamom and saffron with Vanilla!
I don’t know if I could do this for breakfast…but dessert? That would be so ideal. And dangerous, given how easy it is!
oh my gosh, who would have thought! this looks and sounds amazing, i would love to wake up to this!
This is dangerous. Sweetened Condensed Milk is like my crack.
I love you…and I hate you.
This is so simple and delicious. I can’t believe I never heard of this before. I confess to eating a slice last night at 11:30. Not a good habit to get into…but it’s SO good!

I’m not sure where Rachael Ray got this recipe but condensed milk buttered toast has been a staple of Hong Kong style breakfast for as long as I can remember. I ate it all the time as a child and I eat it all the time as an adult. I’m amazed that more people don’t eat it!!
