Crispy Corn Toast Bites

Crispy Corn Toast Bites are a deliciously crunchy snack that combines golden toasted bread with sweet corn and savory spices, perfect for parties or a quick bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices of white bread, crust removed
  • 1 cup cooked sweet corn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons grated cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
  • Butter, for toasting

Instructions

  1. Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly butter one side of each bread slice.
  2. In a bowl, mix the cooked corn kernels, mayonnaise, lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Spread the corn mixture evenly over the unbuttered side of the bread slices.
  4. Sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top of the corn mixture.
