Ingredients
Scale
Cinnamon Butter
- 1/4 cup Pure Blends plant-based butter (avocado oil or coconut oil based)
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/16 teaspoon cardamom (optional)
Breakfast Fig Toast
- 8 slices sourdough bread
- 8-10 fresh figs, sliced into rounds
- Roasted pistachios, crushed (about 2 tablespoons)
- Flaky sea salt (to taste)
- Fresh mint, finely chopped (about 1 tablespoon)
Instructions
- Prepare Cinnamon Butter: In a sealable container, whisk together the plant-based butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, maple syrup, and optional cardamom until smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust the sweetness or spices as desired. Seal the container and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Toast Bread: Toast the sourdough slices until golden and crispy to your liking, using a toaster or oven.
- Assemble Toast: Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of the cinnamon butter onto each warm slice of toast immediately after toasting so it melts slightly.
- Add Toppings: Arrange sliced fresh figs evenly on top of the buttered toast. Sprinkle crushed roasted pistachios, flaky sea salt, and finely chopped fresh mint over the figs for a layered texture and flavor.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately to enjoy the combination of creamy, sweet, nutty, and fresh elements.
Notes
- Use ripe figs that are soft and slightly oozing for the best flavor and texture.
- Maple syrup in the cinnamon butter can be adjusted for sweetness preference.
- Cardamom is optional but adds a warm, aromatic note.
- Fresh mint can be substituted with basil or omitted if preferred.
- Roasted pistachios add a nutty crunch but can be replaced with other nuts or seeds.
