Ingredients

2 slices sliced bread
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon Vegemite

Directions

Step 1

Start by selecting your preferred type of bread. White, wholemeal, sourdough, or any bread of your choice can be used.

Step 2

Place two slices of bread into your toaster or under the grill.

Step 3

Toast the bread to your desired level of crispiness. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Once toasted, remove the bread from the toaster or grill and place it on a plate.

Step 5

Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly over the warm toast to allow it to melt slightly.

Step 6

Use a butter knife to spread a thin layer of Vegemite over the buttered toast. Start with a small amount and add more only if desired, as Vegemite has a strong and salty flavor.

Step 7

Cut the toast into halves or quarters, if preferred, and serve immediately.
