Questions

How many calories are in 2 slices?

About 231 kcal for 2 slices, taken as 70 g (two slices of white bread with about 10 g of butter). Two come to roughly 462 kcal and three to 693 kcal. Per 100 g, bread butter toast carries 330 kcal.

How much protein is in bread butter toast?

8.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 5.6 g in 2 slices. That is 10% of the energy in this food, and ranks 3rd of 14 in the breakfast group on this site.

Is bread butter toast good for weight loss?

At 330 kcal per 100 g it is energy-dense, so the portion decides everything. Protein is low, so eat it alongside a protein source rather than on its own. No single food makes or breaks a diet; the total for the day does.

Why does this differ from other calorie sites?

Two reasons. First, most sites publish a per-100 g figure from a US database and leave you to guess what a roti or a katori weighs; this page states the serving weight up front. Second, home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil and ghee — the figures here assume two slices of white bread with about 10 g of butter. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

Nutrient values are averages for the stated preparation, based on the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) and standard recipe analysis. Energy is reconciled against the macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. General information only — not medical or nutrition advice. Home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil, ghee and portion size; every value here is an average for a stated serving, with the assumption shown.
