Cinnamon Apple Toast is a quick, easy breakfast made with the simplest of ingredients; good bread, an apple, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Vegan and delicious!

Here’s a simple vegan breakfast that I often turn to as the weather cools.  Apple Toast! Apples are sautéed with maple syrup,  with a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg or cardamom, and simply served on sourdough toast. Add a layer of almond butter if you like. It feels so decadent, but it’s so easy.

As the weather cools, a switch goes off in my head and all I want to do is bake bread. I’m sure I got this from my mother, who probably got it from her mother, who got it from hers.  From a long line of Finnish mothers, the bread I grew up eating was wholesome and dense, made with whole grains, most often rye. My mom would mill her own grains, back before this was popular.

Dark, earthy, dense and flavorful, with a hint of sweetness, her rye bread was a meal. When the freshly baked loaf came out of the oven, my mom would butter the heel and hand me the still-warm slice. It was delicious. On days when I was sick, she would toast it, and lather it up with honey. To this day, it’s my favorite way to eat toast when I want to feel nurtured.

Slice an apple- I love using honey crisp apples but almost any apple will work.

Pile the warm apples on the warm toast, along with the drippings from the pan.

  1. My wife and I had been out apple picking at some local orchards and when I got home I started looking for recipes. I modified this recipe a little bit. I used golden delicious apples and added raisins and some toasted pine nuts. I placed it on top of some farro instead of toast. I really liked the maple syrup and apple combination. I will have to try it with some other dishes.






  2. Thanks for posting!! I love jam too, but don’t love how much sugar is in it. Yes, you are right….a good compromise. Appreciate your feedback!

  3. This apples on toast dish will definitely be making an appearance on my breakfast rotation.. looks delicious and your photography of it is great too!
