Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 slices whole-grain bread
- 2 ripe bananas (sliced)
- 4–6 fresh strawberries (sliced)
Dairy and Spread:
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or cream cheese
Toppings and Sweeteners:
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flax seeds
Instructions
- Select whole-grain bread slices, ensuring they are fresh and ready for toasting.
- Carefully toast the bread until it develops a golden-brown color and achieves a satisfying crispness.
- Apply a velvety layer of Greek yogurt or cream cheese across the toast surface, creating a smooth and tangy foundation.
- Delicately arrange banana slices in an overlapping pattern, covering the creamy spread with soft, sweet medallions.
- Distribute vibrant strawberry slices atop the banana layer, creating a visually appealing and colorful arrangement.
- Elegantly drizzle honey across the fruit, allowing it to cascade and enhance the natural sweetness of the toast.
- Sprinkle a medley of chia and flax seeds over the entire surface, introducing a nutritional boost and delightful textural contrast.
- Serve the toast immediately while the bread remains crisp and the fruits are at their peak freshness, ready to deliver a burst of flavor and nutrition.
Notes
- Experiment with different bread types like sourdough or gluten-free options to suit various dietary needs.
- Swap Greek yogurt with almond or coconut yogurt for a dairy-free alternative that keeps the creamy texture.
- Toast can be prepared ahead and assembled just before serving to maintain crispiness and prevent sogginess.
- For a protein-packed version, add a thin layer of almond butter or peanut butter under the fruit for extra nutrition and satisfying flavor.
