I never thought to candy bread! But it's a great idea! It's a quick and delicious snack! The taste of this reminds me of the famous 'Auntie Anne's Pretzels'! I always get them when I go to the mall. I think I go to the mall just for that reason!
I found this Candied Bread recipe on a food blog called Cooking Classy. I like her pic better than mine! Go check it out!

| Candied Bread |
INGREDIENTS:
4 slices of white bread or French bread (1/2 inch thick) I removed the crusts, but you don't have to.
1/4 cup salted butter, softened until easily spreadable
6 Tbls. light brown sugar
DIRECTIONS:
Lightly butter and heat a non stick frying pan or griddle on medium heat.
Evenly spread 1/2 Tbls of the softened butter on one side of each slice of bread.
Then sprinkle each slice with 1/2 Tbls. of light brown sugar over the butter.
Place the bread with the butter/sugar side down, on the heated pan.
Let it get very brown. This should take a few minutes. You want the sugar to caramelize.
While the first side is browning, spread another 1/2 Tbls. of softened butter on the other side of each bread slice and sprinkle each with 1/2 Tbls. light brown sugar.
When the first side has nicely caramelized, flip the bread and brown the other side.
When both sides are browned and caramelized,
remove to a parchment paper or waxed paper lined plate.
Let the bread cool completely because the bread will get nice and crisp as it cools...
and because biting into hot caramel really hurts! I have the burns to prove it!
