Description

Shibuya Honey Toast is a delightful dessert featuring thick slices of buttery brioche bread toasted to golden perfection, generously drizzled with honey and cinnamon, and filled with creamy vanilla ice cream. Topped with fresh banana, strawberries, whipped cream, powdered sugar, and fresh mint leaves, this sweet treat offers a perfect combination of warm, crispy bread and cool, luscious ice cream in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale

Toast

  • 2 thick slices of brioche bread (about 1 1/2 inches thick)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Honey Mixture

  • 3 tablespoons honey (plus extra for drizzling)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Toppings

  • 2 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 1/2 banana, sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/4 cup whipped cream
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for toasting the brioche bread evenly.
  2. Butter the Bread: Spread softened unsalted butter evenly on both sides of each thick brioche slice to ensure a golden, crispy exterior once toasted.
  3. Toast the Bread: Place the buttered bread slices on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway through the baking time to achieve a golden brown and crispy texture on both sides.
  4. Prepare Honey Mixture: While the bread is toasting, combine 3 tablespoons of honey and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (if using) in a small bowl to infuse the sweet toast with aromatic warmth.
  5. Drizzle Honey: After removing the toasted bread from the oven, immediately drizzle the honey-cinnamon mixture over the warm slices so it absorbs into the toast.
  6. Create Ice Cream Cavity: Carefully cut a 2-inch deep square into the center of each bread slice, making sure not to cut through the bottom. Gently hollow out the crumb to form a cavity for the ice cream.
  7. Fill with Ice Cream: Place 2 generous scoops of vanilla ice cream into the hollowed-out center, stacking as desired for an appealing presentation.
  8. Add Fresh Fruit: Arrange the sliced banana and strawberries both on top of and around the ice cream to add fresh, fruity contrast.
  9. Top with Whipped Cream and Garnish: Spoon whipped cream over the assembled toast, lightly dust with powdered sugar, and add fresh mint leaves for a fragrant and colorful garnish.
  10. Finish with Honey Drizzle: Drizzle a little extra honey over the top for added sweetness and shine right before serving.
  11. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Shibuya Honey Toast fresh to experience the perfect blend of warm toast and cold ice cream in every bite.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can toast the bread slightly longer but watch closely to avoid burning.
  • Feel free to substitute vanilla ice cream with your favorite flavor for variety.
  • Adjust the amount of honey and cinnamon to your preferred sweetness and spice level.
  • This dessert is best enjoyed immediately to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
  • Use fresh, ripe fruit for the best flavor contrast.
