Take a piece of firm white bread, toast until medium dark, slather on butter & coat with cinnamon sugar.

I do like toast with butter, cinamon and sugar, but I always put it in the microwave for a few seconds right before I eat it to make it all mush together...I suppose you could do with this a toaster over too if you want to avoid the evil micro-rays.

But my favorite is and will always be Nutella and strawberry jam.

I shouldn't admit this ...

I LOVE tahini and sriracha on toasty bread. I have no idea why I tried the combination, but it is seriously satisfying.

Smoked mackerel and mustard. Hard cheese (jarlesberg, for example) and sliced cucumbers with a little bit of butter. Soft cheese with sliced red pepper. I like a savoury breakfast. My boyfriend likes liver pate with something pickled (beetroot or gherkins) on top. Usually we have these things on Wasa or Danish rye bread, but toast works nicely too.

Cream cheese and pepper jelly!

My favorite toast topping is cashew butter. Cream cheese on toast works if the bread is hearty, and it's topped with a tomato or cucumber, salt, and pepper...though cream cheese and berry jam is nice, as well.

Mom's favorite is cottage cheese on rye toast.

The other day, I toasted up some lovely kalamata olive bread with homemade Montasio cheese pesto and a slice of provolone on top.

Gotta love the toaster oven. One of my favorite kitchen gadgets.

cream cheese and tomato slices.

scrambled eggs.

hummus & alfalfa sprouts.

cream cheese and bacon on a toasted bagel

Cream cheese and sliced Spanish olives, or a robust garlic-veggie schmear, are favorite toast toppers. Back in the Pleistocene days of Weight Watchers, breakfast was a slice of toast topped with riccotta cheese and sugar-free strawberry preserves, a combination I still occasionally crave.

I like my toast well done to slightly burnt...especially if dipping in egg yolks.

Favorite Breakfast Toast: Thin layer of Cheese Whiz

Favorite Lunch Toast: Braunschweiger & mustard

Favorite Dinner Toast: Growing up, my dad would grate fresh garlic on Toast to go with steak or chops. The garlic melts into the toast like butter. I still make this simple accompaniment for dinner when we grill, make pasta or a just a simple bowl of soup.

Nutella! yum.

sauteed mushrooms and stinky cheese

multi-grain with extra-sharp cheddar and cinnamon-sugar

Really good butter and a fried egg. Although, all this talk of pate is making me crave liver....

Bagel of your choice lightly toasted with cream cheese mixed with fresh dill, finely chopped red onion and chopped fresh grape tomatoes, salt & pepper to taste. Make the cream cheese mix in advance so flavors can blend. Savory and delicious.

A new discovery made just today; and the 50th variety of toast toppings; butter, cloves, lemon zest, creme fraiche, and sauteed peaches.
For the less complicated, peanut butter with chocolate icing
Marshmallows and chocolate chips
Toasted hazelnuts and honey
Zucchini, roasted red pepper, and goat cheese

It is amazing & fun to read the number of different toast toppers!

I also like peanut butter honey mix spread on whole wheat toast with a sprinkle of granola.

We are at 57 ways to top toast---do you have other creations?

Good seven grain with tuna mixed with capers, a little bit of curry, some small cubes of granny smith apple, small dice of onion with dijon mustard on the toast then squeeze a little bit of lemon and salt and pepper on the top of that.

my hubby loves toast wtih marmelade (didn't see that one up there yet...)
my fave is really PB and honey (mentioned by JEP)
Maple butter is another great option, but only if you like supersweet stuff (I don't do this one for breakfast...)

Ripe avocado slices, a drizzle of the best virgin olive oil and smoked paprika

Peanut butter and good, preferably homemade, mayonaisse ( don't knock it till you try it ), great as a sandwich

Soft goat cheese topped with a sunnyside up egg with cracked black pepper

Brie and apricot preserves

Garlic paste made from it being baked whole with salt, pepper and olive oil, till it's soft and candy sweet, adorned with shreds of basil or tarragon

And the best cinnamon toast is made with pumpernickle bread

okay, this might sound a bit odd, but there is sometimes nothing better than a nice piece of thick toast, spread with vegemite (or marmite, depending on what is available) and then a little worchestershire sauce and finally some really nice, warm baked beans (English-style ones, not American ones - I can't stand the molasses that they always add to them in the US).

toasted sourdough with chavrie, toasted slivered almonds, and apricot jam

toasted brioche with fig jam and crushed hazelnuts

toasted pumpernickel with boursin

I love wheat toast (or toasted english muffins) with:
-eggs cooked over easy and then the bread soaks up all the yolk
-JIF and Smuckers
-PB & honey
-cream cheese and jam
-cinnamon swirl bread with PB

pretty much any sandwich is better on toast.

Years ago, an old fisherman told us his secret for being able to walk to the lake, row a boat out, fish all morning and then still have enough energy to make it back home. He'd start out at "umpty-AM" with toast, and on top was a warmed up mixture of a can of undiluted Campbells Cr. of Mushroom soup and a can of drained tuna with a lot of black pepper on it. Sounded awful to me, so I shelved the idea.
We finally tried it when we had to get up at 3AM to get to the flea market in Tucson from our home about 60 miles away. We'd eat this heavy duty toast and we were able to load the truck, drive to Tucson, work the flea market until we were out of stuff to sell (usually between noon and 2PM) and actually make it to our fave Mexican restaurant for a really good meal.

#68----Whole wheat toast spread with lemon curd

Any toast toppers we have missed?

Nice dark bread - toasted twice for extra crispyness - spread lightly with tahini and very thin slices of asiago. YUM!

Oop's---my last post should have been for #88

#92---multi-grain toast spread with cream cheese & apricot preserves

Hey, we are almost to the 100 mark! Add your favorite toast topper!

My favorite toast topper is a very light smear of butter and topped with a generous helping of apple sauce. I also like this combo on waffles which I have for dinner on occasion!

#95---white toast spread with peanut butter then sprinkled with chopped dates

What goes on top of your toast?

I love a slice of hearty white bread toasted and topped with baby swiss cheese --melted slightly with homeade cherry preserves. Yummmmm.

Some savories;
101:crisp ciabatta rubbed with garlic and squeeze a very ripe tomato over it
102:Madras red curry paste and plain yogurt
103:melted blue cheese and rosemary
and some sweets:
104:butter, dulce de leche, and gorgonzola
105:cream cheese, peanut butter, and graham wafer crumbs
106:butter, brown sugar, and ginger

Also, the DC-area bakery Marvelous Market sells a delicious, slightly sweet bread called Farmhouse Wheat (which I think is a variation on Anadama bread) that is awesome when sliced thick, topped with any sharp cheese (I like Parrano), and toasted until the cheese is bubbling and is beginning to brown.

In tomato season I have open-faced tomato sandwiches every day. My current fave: multigrain toast spread with goat cheese, a little black olive tapenade and thick-sliced brandywines sprinkled with sea salt. So good!
