Ingredients

• 2 slices bread (white, sourdough, or whole grain)
• 1 tablespoon butter (unsalted)
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 piece banana (optional, sliced)
• 1 cup chamomile tea (optional, to serve)

Directions

Step 1

Start by lightly toasting the bread slices to a golden soft crisp—avoid over-toasting, as the goal is a texture that’s easy to eat when you're not feeling well.

Step 2

While the bread is toasting, soften the butter slightly to make it easier to spread. You can leave it out at room temperature for a minute or two.

Step 3

Once toasted, spread the softened butter evenly across the surface of each slice. The butter will melt into the warm bread, making it extra comforting.

Step 4

Drizzle the honey over the buttered toast. Use the back of a spoon to spread it evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over the honey. Adjust the quantity to your taste, but a gentle dose adds warmth without being overwhelming.

Step 6

If desired, layer thin slices of banana on top of the cinnamon for added creaminess and natural sweetness.

Step 7

Serve warm with a soothing cup of chamomile tea on the side to complete the sick-day comfort meal.
