Healthy (Believe It!) Cinnamon Toast image

My mom used to give us decadent cinnamon-sprinkled toast, with butter or margarine to make the cinnamon-sugar stick. Now that I'm vegan and needed a butter alternative, I ended up creating this! Still has a dreamy flavor, but won't hurt you or the cows!

Time 5m

Yield 2 slices, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 slices whole wheat bread (use raisin bread for a special treat)
1 small banana
2 teaspoons ground flax seeds
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (generous)

Steps:

  • Mash the banana (easiest with a fork in a shallow bowl) to make the luscious "banana butter". Toast the bread.
  • In a jar, combine the flax, sugar and cinnamon and shake till well mixed. You may want to add more sugar- this combo had just the right sweetness for me.
  • Spread some of the mashed banana on each slice of bread, and generously sprinkle each with flaxen-cinnamon sugar.
  • Enjoy with a cold glass of rice or soy milk and a fruit bowl.
