Hear me out: make honey butter toast out of duds?

I recently discovered honey butter toast from a bakery in London and it’s dangerously delicious.

I’ve just looked up how to make it and well, it’s pretty straightforward: cut bread into cubes, dip in honey/butter/sugar mix and bake.

This got me thinking of the loaves I baked and wasn’t super happy with the scoring, crust shape, etc… Cut the outside and make into honey butter toast? Prolly will need a somewhat tight grain. Maybe it leads to a different take on it?

I haven’t tried it yet, but maybe my next dud? should happen soon 🙂

What do you think? Maybe you try it out before I do? Please report back!

I took the photo earlier when visiting the bakery. Here’s a random video recipe I found https://youtube.com/shorts/qlMoPEjcNF4. I’ve not been to the bakery they mentioned in this video but have been to Happy Sky (where I took the photo).
