TIPS

Here are some helpful tips for Almond Butter Toast With Hemp Seeds:

• Use Ripe Banana: A ripe banana provides natural sweetness and creaminess.

• Warm Toast Enhances Flavour: Spreading almond butter on warm toast allows it to melt slightly, which creates a more decadent texture.

• Slice Banana Thinly: Thin slices ensure every bite includes all layers.

• Choose Sprouted Bread: For enhanced nutrition and digestibility, opt for sprouted grain bread.

• Add Just Before Serving: Apply toppings just before eating to maintain freshness and prevent sogginess.

VARIATIONS

• Nut-Free Option: Swap almond butter for sunflower seed butter or tahini.

• Add Fresh Berries: Add blueberries, raspberries or strawberries for a burst of colour and antioxidants.

• Sprinkle Cinnamon: A dash of cinnamon can add warmth and enhance sweetness without added sugar.

• Use Different Seeds: Try chia, flax or pumpkin seeds as alternatives to hemp for added variety.

• Sweeten Naturally: Drizzle a small amount of maple syrup or date syrup for a touch of extra sweetness.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

• Best Served Fresh: This toast is best eaten immediately to maintain texture and flavour.

• Not Suitable For Freezing: Freezing is not recommended as the toast will lose its crispness and structure.

• Prep Ingredients Ahead: Slice bananas and store them in an airtight container for up to one day to save time.

• Portable Option: Prepare just before leaving and wrap in parchment paper for an on-the-go snack.

• Reheat Toast If Needed: If you prepare the base in advance, re-toast the bread lightly before assembling.
