This super simple snack is made by spreading leftover sliced bread with microwave-melted butter mixed with condensed milk and baking it. Baking it in the air fryer for 5 minutes per side turns it delightfully crispy and sweet. Depending on your preference, you can top it with chopped nuts or cinnamon powder for extra nutty aroma.

Steps



For the main ingredients, you only need sliced bread and condensed milk.
You do not have to include nuts or cinnamon.
Cut the sliced bread into 4 pieces.
Microwave the butter for at least 1 minute to melt it.
Add the condensed milk and mix together.
Sugar or corn syrup (mulyeot) also works well instead of condensed milk.


You can brush the butter mixture evenly with a pastry brush and bake right away,
or sprinkle chopped peanuts on top before baking.


Bake at 180°C for 5 minutes, then flip and bake for another 5 minutes to finish.
If you want to add cinnamon powder, sprinkle it lightly right after it comes out of the oven and let it cool.
