Ingredients
Bread
- 2 slices sourdough or whole grain bread, toasted
Yogurt Mixture
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup
Toppings
- 1/3 cup fresh raspberries, lightly mashed
- 2 tablespoons shelled pistachios, finely chopped
- Optional pinch of lemon zest
Instructions
- Toast the bread: Toast the slices of sourdough or whole grain bread until they are golden brown and crisp to provide a crunchy base for the toppings.
- Prepare the yogurt mixture: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with vanilla extract and honey or maple syrup. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and combined, adding sweetness and flavor to the yogurt.
- Assemble the toast: Spread an even layer of the yogurt mixture over each slice of toasted bread.
- Add the raspberries: Spoon the lightly mashed fresh raspberries over the yogurt layer, keeping some texture intact for a fresh berry flavor and slight tartness.
- Top with pistachios and lemon zest: Sprinkle the finely chopped shelled pistachios evenly on top of the raspberries. Finish by adding a small pinch of lemon zest for a bright, citrusy aroma if desired.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy the raspberry yogurt toasts fresh for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use coconut yogurt as a dairy-free alternative to Greek yogurt.
- Substitute raspberries with strawberries or blueberries for a different fruity flavor.
- Adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to suit your preferred sweetness level.
- Ensure bread is toasted well to prevent sogginess when adding yogurt.
