Manuka Honey Roasted Apple Toast

As the leaves change colors and the mornings become more crisp, you may be ready to switch from your breakfasts of iced coffees, smoothies and chilled fruit, to other options that will both wake and warm you up in the morning. Treat your tastebuds to a warm, delicious and filling breakfast - our Manuka Honey Roasted Apple Toast.

This is not your average toast; it’s full of flavor and piled high in sweet, gooey, roasted apples. With the perfect combination of apple, cinnamon spice and sweet Manuka Honey, enjoying this toast is like taking a bite into Fall. The stronger flavors are balanced out with a layer of cream cheese underneath the caramelized apple goodness. For a sweeter taste, use a red apple, perhaps a Fuji or Gala. For a more tart taste, we suggest using granny smith apple.

This recipe can be made with any type of toast you desire, from multigrain to challah. The trick is to cut your slices thick - you want them to be able to hold the roasted apples, which can be a little heavy. This is best served right away, so that the apples don’t make the toast mushy. However, if you want to do some prep ahead of time, you can prepare the roasted apples, store them, and then warm them back up before topping your toast when you are ready to eat.

Though the recipe is quite easy, it does require a little more time than pouring a bowl of cereal or buttering a bagel, so perhaps save this recipe for a weekend morning rather than a morning during which you’re in a rush to get out the door. It’s a great recipe to make on a relaxed Saturday morning, or for a brunch get-together with family or friends. Manuka Honey Roasted Toast can be the meal, or the side. Enjoy a full slice or two with a cup of coffee or tea, or, cut slices of this toast up into bite-size pieces and enjoy as a side with other breakfast foods.

Not only does the toast taste amazing, but your kitchen will also smell wonderful while you’re making it. Forget candles and oil diffusers - making this recipe will fill your home with the aromas of cinnamon and Manuka Honey. Try it out and let us know what you think!
