5 Best Toast Toppers
Strawberry & Raspberry Bagel
These are my 5 best fruit based toast toppers.Upgrade your toast for your next breakfast. Try one of these for your breakfast tomorrow. How do you use up all those strawberries, blueberries,and raspberries ? Load them onto a piece of golden toast with yoghurt,mix and match with your favourite toppings and you are away!
Berries are amazing right now! I am loving experimenting with toasted chewy bagels, natural or sweetened yoghurt and a range of fruit toppings. I never thought yoghurt could be eaten and enjoyed on top of toast. BUT I love it !
My top trick is to drizzle with something sweet and add a crunch!
Serves 2
Prep Time 10 minutes
2 x Sesame bagels
1/2 cup vanilla yoghurt
1/2 punnet chopped strawberries
1/2 punnet halved raspberries
1 x finely sliced kaffir lime leaf
1 tsp grated palm sugar
2 Tbsps shredded coconut
Drizzle of maple syrup
Pinch of ground white pepper.
Toast the bagels and spread with yoghurt. Top the bagels with strawberries and raspberries, Kaffir lime leaf, a sprinkle of palm sugar, coconut and a drizzle of maple syrup. Pinch of white pepper will really bring out the flavours of the strawberries .( I learnt this in France on my travels !)
Hazelnut Spread Toast with all the good stuff

4 slices wholegrain bread
