Breakfast

Some mornings I arise with an intense sweet craving – most of the times it’s when I’ve had my dinner before 7 pm, which is a common occurrence, and simply because of that, I believe I am entitled to a bit more sugar than usual. Luckily, I had some sourdough on hand to toast up in some lovely butter – a much needed essential. This is the vehicle that you build on with whatever your taste buds need – peanut butter and jam, caramelised bananas with spices, some extra honey for all that extra love!

Simple, easy, made in less than 10 minutes, 5 if you’re quick!
