Ingredients
- 2 slices Whole grain sourdough bread
- 2 teaspoons Plant-based butter or heart-healthy spread
- 1 teaspoon Ground flaxseeds
- 1 teaspoon Chia seeds
- 1 pinch Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley or chives, finely chopped, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your toaster or toaster oven to a medium setting.
Step 2
Place the slices of whole grain sourdough bread into the toaster and toast them to your desired level of crispness, typically around 3-5 minutes.
Step 3
While the bread is toasting, prepare the toppings. Measure out the plant-based butter or heart-healthy spread, ground flaxseeds, chia seeds, and fresh herbs if using.
Step 4
Once the sourdough bread is toasted, spread 1 teaspoon of plant-based butter evenly across the surface of each slice while the bread is still warm to allow it to melt slightly.
Step 5
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt evenly over the buttered slices for flavor. Then, top each slice with a light layer of ground flaxseeds and chia seeds for added texture and nutrition.
Step 6
If desired, garnish with fresh herbs like finely chopped parsley or chives for a burst of color and flavor.
Step 7
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your heart-healthy sourdough buttered toast!
