Ingredients

Bread - Rustik bread was used in this recipe, but any artisan variety will do.
Honey Almond Butter - Buy a little, or buy a lot. We bought a sample package for this recipe.
Banana - One medium banana should do! (Two bananas are pictured above).
Almonds - We purchase the slivered almonds. Leftovers can be frozen to retain freshness.
Coconut - Unsweetened shredded coconut is what we prefer. Coconut can be frozen as well.
Chia Seeds - Chia seeds add so many health benefits! Fiber, Omega 3, and protein, to name a few.

Instructions

How to Make Crunchy Honey Almond Butter Toast

STEP ONE: Prepare the Ingredients

First, you will need to gather all of your ingredients and have them ready. I like to gather my measuring spoons ahead of time, too.

STEP TWO: Toast the Bread

Next, toast two slices of bread until it is slightly browned. You can use your oven if the slices are too large for a toaster.

STEP THREE: Assemble and Serve

Finally, spread honey almond butter on both slices, followed by bananas, almonds, coconut, and chia seeds.

Substitutions

Nuts - Choose your favorite crunchy variety. We like the slivered almonds because there's no need for additional crushing.
Nut Butter - Of course, others will work just as well, but then it wouldn't be called "Honey Almond Butter" toast.
Coconut - We also like the coconut chips and large flakes. Other dried fruits may work well.
Bread - Use wheat or sprouted grain bread if you prefer a healthier variety.

Variations

Flavor - Feeling chocolatey? Try Nutella toast! We love pairing strawberries with this delicious hazelnut spread.

Storage

This Almond Butter Toast is best if eaten right away. The bread tends to get soggy if stored in the refrigerator.

Top Tips

Nuts, seeds, and dried fruit store well in the freezer. If you use them often, seal them in a mason jar and keep them in the door of the freezer so they are readily accessible.
