Instructions: 1 Cut the pineapples into pieces. Spread half of the butter over one side of the slices of bread and sprinkle them with 60 g of the sugar.

2 Melt the rest of the butter in a frying pan over a low heat, put in the bread slices with the buttered and sugared side uppermost. Cover and fry for 10 minutes.

3 Remove the bread slices from the pan, put them on a plate and leave to cool.

4 Arrange the pineapple on the bread. Shake the can of whipped cream and use to decorate the tartines.

The invention of bread is attributed to the Egyptians, who made flat loaves cooked on heated stones. It is thought that they discovered fermentation by chance, with dough that had become sour.
