Classic Fairy Bread

Fairy bread is a magical treat that kids absolutely love! It’s a super simple snack that originated in Australia (typically served at birthday parties) and is perfect for parties and get-togethers. Here’s how to make it: take slices from of white bread and spread them with butter. Then, sprinkle colorful hundreds and thousands (sprinkles) all over the bread. Cut the bread into small triangles or squares, and voila! You’ve got yourself a delightful and tasty treat that kids can’t resist. Fairy bread is not only delicious but also a great activity for kids. It’s easy for them to get involved in the kitchen and let their creativity shine. They can spread the butter, decorate the bread with sprinkles, and have a blast doing it! Plus, the bright colors and fun appearance of fairy bread make it even more appealing to little ones. So, if you’re looking for a simple yet tasty treat that will bring joy to your kids’ faces, you’ve got to try out fairy bread!

Ingredients Needed

It only takes 3 simple ingredients to whip up this whimsical treat. You can switch up the sprinkles to make festive versions of fairy bread, or let your kids make their own colorful designs.

White Bread: If your kids are anything like mine, they won’t touch wheat bread, so soft and fluffy white bread is a must! Some other great options that I’ve tried are potato bread and Hawaiian bread for an extra touch of sweetness. You can also use gluten-free bread if you have any dietary restrictions. Butter or Margarine: I used salted butter, but you can use whatever you have on hand. The butter adds richness to this snack and also helps the sprinkles stick. I recommend using softened butter so it spreads onto the bread easily. (You can also try making homemade butter if you’re up for the challenge!) Nonpareils Sprinkles: These are called “hundreds and thousands” in Australia. Multicolored sprinkles are a must for this treat, and truly make each slice look magical!
