Serves 2

Ingredients

Artisan bread
2 slices (preferably whole grain or sourdough)
Almond butter
2 tablespoons
Fresh figs
4-6, sliced
Honey
2 teaspoons
Almonds
2 tablespoons, chopped

Instructions

  1. Begin by toasting the slices of artisan bread in a toaster or on a skillet over medium heat until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Once toasted, spread 1 tablespoon of almond butter evenly on each slice of toast, ensuring a generous layer to maximize flavor.
  3. Carefully arrange the sliced fresh figs on top of the almond butter, overlapping them slightly for a stunning presentation.
  4. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of honey over the figs on each toast, allowing it to seep into the layers for added sweetness.
  5. Sprinkle the chopped almonds on top for a delightful crunch and texture contrast.
  6. Serve immediately while the toast is warm, and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors.

Tips

  • 💡 For a savory twist, add a sprinkle of sea salt or a dash of balsamic reduction over the figs.
  • 💡 Experiment with different nut butters like cashew or peanut butter for a unique flavor.
  • 💡 If fresh figs are out of season, you can use dried figs, but soak them in warm water for a few minutes for better texture.
