Welcome to my breakfast fantasy.

This almond butter toast bar is loaded with so many favorites.

Toasty, whole grain bread. Creamy almond butter in all the flavors. Fresh, plump fruit with a drizzle of raw honey and a sprinkling of cinnamon. Chocolate chips, cacao nibs, carob powder, and anything else that might make this feel like dessert brunch.

Ever since coming up with my vegan cookie for one and vegan cookie dough dip for two, almond butter just tastes like dessert to me. Which is FINE because it's not dessert, it's super healthy and full of protein.

That makes this almond butter toast bar ideal for both people who love to eat and people who love to watch what they eat. And that, my foodie friends, is what we call a win-win.

Also, I sliced up apples to use as toast as a gluten-free option! Just make sure you keep them separated from the bread to avoid cross contamination. This was so unbelievably delicious that I'm probably going to do it all the time now!

Because all these options could feel a little overwhelming, I'm going to share with you a few of my favorite combinations from the toast bar, ready?! Warning: I gave them cutesy names because WHY NOT?!!!

The Apple of My Eye - A horizontal apple slice (seeds removed, I like a crisp apple such as gala, pink lady, or granny smith) spread with almond butter, sprinkled with mini chocolate chips.

The Superfoodie - Toasted whole grain Ezekiel bread, topped with almond butter, fresh raspberries and blueberries, and sprinkled with hemp hearts.

I love how many places this toasty spread would be appropriate. Mother's Day feels obvious, but I also love the idea of using it for a baby or bridal shower or children's party!

This almond butter toast bar can be endlessly customized! Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Make toast to order to keep things extra crispy, or keep toasted bread warm in a low temperature oven on a baking sheet and set out as needed
Use any combination of nut butters such as peanut butter, cashew butter, crunchy almond butter, nutella, etc.
Skip the toasting and make open faced sandwiches if serving for a children's party
If you're feeling more controlling, pre-make a variety of topped toasts to present for easy grabbing
Use whatever toppings your beautiful, creative mind can come up with!
