A warm, crunchy toast topped with creamy yogurt, sweet honey and crunchy almonds — simple ingredients that come together to make a comforting, satisfying breakfast or snack.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
I love how quick this comes together, and yet it feels indulgent and satisfying. The contrast of crunchy toast, creamy yogurt, and nutty almonds — plus the natural sweetness from honey — hits the spot. It’s easy to adapt depending on what I have at home, and it works whether I’m in a hurry or want a relaxed, cozy bite.
Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of Ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 slice of bread (your favorite kind — sturdy enough to hold toppings)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or thick/plain yogurt of choice)
1 tablespoon honey (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons sliced or slivered almonds, toasted
optional: a pinch of cinnamon (or other spices/toppings as you like)
Directions
Toast the bread until golden and crispy — I use a toaster or oven broiler depending on what’s around.
Spread the plain yogurt on the slice of toasted bread.
Drizzle the honey over the yogurt.
Sprinkle the toasted almonds on top.
If I like, I finish with a pinch of cinnamon or any other flavor enhancer I enjoy (nuts, fruit, seeds, etc.).
Servings and Timing
This recipe makes 1 serving — one slice of toast. The prep takes under 5 minutes, and with toasting time I’m usually eating within 10 minutes or less.
Storage/Reheating
I recommend eating the toast right away — that’s when the textures are best (crisp bread, creamy yogurt, crunchy nuts). If I have leftovers (though rare), I store only the yogurt in the fridge and keep almonds dry separately. Toast gets soggy if stored too long, so reheating isn’t ideal; instead, I would toast fresh bread to reassemble if needed.
Variations
I sometimes use whole-wheat, sourdough, or rustic bread instead of regular bread — they hold up better under yogurt and toppings.
I occasionally add fresh fruit (like berries, banana slices) or seeds, dried fruit, or nut butter for extra flavor and texture.
Instead of honey, I might use maple syrup, agave syrup or a small drizzle of nut butter depending on what I have.
For a more indulgent or dessert-like toast, I might add a sprinkle of cinnamon (or even nutmeg) on top.
FAQs
Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?
Yes — regular plain yogurt works, though Greek or thicker yogurt gives a richer, creamier texture and stays better on the toast without soaking the bread.
Can I add fruit or other toppings?
Absolutely. I often add fresh fruit (berries, banana slices, etc.), dried fruit, seeds, or even a drizzle of nut butter or maple syrup for extra flavor and texture.
What kind of bread works best?
I prefer sturdy bread — something thick and not too porous — so it holds the yogurt and toppings without falling apart. Whole-wheat, sourdough, rustic bread or even thick sandwich bread all work fine.
Is there a way to make this more filling?
Yes — I sometimes add extra toppings like chopped nuts, seeds, fruit, or even a smear of nut butter. You could also pair the toast with a piece of fruit or a beverage (tea, coffee) to make a fuller breakfast.
Can I make it ahead for later?
I don’t recommend assembling the full toast ahead of time because the bread becomes soggy. But you can prep the yogurt mixture and toast the bread separately, then combine just before eating.
Conclusion
This yogurt toast with almonds and honey is one of my go-to “easy but satisfying” breakfasts or snacks. It’s quick to make, uses simple ingredients, and delivers a nice balance of creamy, crunchy, and sweet. I have fun switching up toppings depending on what I have in the kitchen — sometimes I go for fruit, other times just extra nuts and a bit more honey.
