Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Bread slices (thick-cut)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 teaspoons Vegemite
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (or your preferred melting cheese), shredded
Instructions
Preheat your oven to broil (or 200°C/400°F if your oven doesn’t have a broil function).
Lightly toast the bread slices in a toaster or under the oven broiler, just until the surface is firm but not browned.
Spread a thin layer of butter on each lightly toasted bread slice while it’s still warm.
Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of Vegemite on each slice. You can adjust the amount to suit your taste (less for a milder flavor, more for a stronger taste).
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded cheddar cheese generously over the top of each slice, ensuring full coverage.
Place the prepared slices on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or foil.
Transfer the tray to the oven and broil for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and just starting to turn golden brown.
Remove the cheesy Vegemite toasts from the oven and let them cool for 1 minute before slicing or serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your cheesy, savory snack!
