Apple Tahini Toast

This upside-down apple tahini toast is like apple pie in a breakfast. It's sweet, crunchy, and subtly creamy from the tahini. The apple cooks perfectly in the oven making this a gorgeous, glossy (but still low-effort!) toast.

Ingredients

  • 1 large apple
  • 4 slices bread of choice
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 4 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds
  • salt to taste
  • lemon juice to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Thinly slice the apple into crescent slices. Make each slice as this as possible, since the goal is to lay them flat on the toast.
  • OPTIONAL: put your bread slices under a broiler for 2 minutes to get one side of the bread toasted. If you need to skip this step, that's totally fine!
  • Spread a layer of tahini on each piece of bread. If you opted to toast the bread, spread the tahini on the toasted side.
  • Lay down a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Sprinkle the sliced almonds on the sheet, creating a rough shape of the bread you are using. The bread will be placed on top of the almonds, so try to match the shape as best as possible.
  • Drizzle honey directly on top of the almonds, then layer the apples on top of the honey.
  • Place the tahini-side of the bread directly on top of the apple slices.
  • Bake for 13-15 minutes at 350F, remove when the side of the bread that you can see has started to toast, or when you see the honey has begun to caramelize.
  • Let the toasts rest for 2 minutes out of the oven, then flip over onto a plate and carefully remove the parchment paper.
  • Eat right away :)
