Running out of ideas to make interesting snacks at home? For some, snack time is the most favourite part of the day. While there are all sorts of lip-smacking treats available to buy, there's nothing quite like making them at home where you can tweak them to suit your taste and ensure that they are healthy too. You really don't need to put in too much effort in order to serve delightful snacks within minutes. You only need to stock your store cupboard with a few basic ingredients that can do the job. One such life saver is bread.
Bread slices can be used in many ways to create delicious snacks to satisfy those hunger pangs. From crispy pakoras and loaded crostini to wholesome sandwiches and sinful puddings, options are aplenty. Bread is also a great ingredient to play around with to arrive at innovative treats. We list out three of our favourite bread snacks that are sure to impress your guests:
1. Bread tartlets
If you have guests coming over and you really don't have much time to rustle up some snacks, you can try bread tartlets. Not only do they look gorgeous but are immensely easy to prepare using your favourite ingredients. Take a bread slice, cut off the side crusts, and then use it as a base for buttered tart moulds. Bake them for five minutes at 150 degree C, and then add a cheesy filling and bake again until crisp and golden.
2. Bread rolls
When it's hot and crispy, it's already a hit, isn't it? Bread rolls are an instant favourite and you can load them up with herb potatoes, minced meat or spiced vegetables and relish with a creamy dip. Take a bread slice and slightly dip it in water to soften it. Add the filling and make a roll and seal the sides. Deep fry until golden and serve hot.
3. Mini pizza
Yes, you can use bread slices to make lip-smacking pizzas at home. The best part is that you can add as much toppings as you like. Take a bread slice, cut off the side crusts, and layer it generously with a cheese spread and tomato sauce. Add the toppings and cheese and bake in the oven until crisp and golden. You can make margherita, pepperoni, etc.
