Ingredients
Bread: Use your favorite bread while making the toast. White bread, brown bread, sourdough bread, whole-grain bread, Vienna bread, Zopf, etc., will work well for this recipe. Toast it on your pop-up toaster, oven, or skillet (tawa).
Peanut butter and Nutella: Both Nutella and Peanut butter are our all-time favorites, and we always have jars of these nut butters in our pantry. Even crunchy peanut butter works here.
Strawberries: Use juicy fresh strawberries while making strawberry toast.
Mint leaves: Mint leaves add a burst of freshness when you take a bite of this toast. Strawberry and mint are one of the best flavor combinations that I highly recommend you try.

Recipe FAQs
Peanut butter is high in protein, making you feel full and promoting fat loss. When peanut butter is paired with whole-grain toast, you'll get a sufficient amount of protein and dietary fiber - both of which are good for weight loss.
Fruits such as Bananas, Strawberries, Mangoes, Apple, etc., taste good with Nutella. Nutella also pairs really well with toasted bread, as opposed to untoasted bread, in easy Nutella crescent rolls, quick Nutella crepes, cookies, and more.
Peanut butter is lower in sugar, higher in protein, and lower in unhealthy fats, compared with Nutella. But an occasional indulgence with Nutella is absolutely allowed in my books!
The combination of peanut butter and fruits like banana and strawberries is great for breakfast, mid-snack, or after-school snacks as it provides essential healthy fats and protein along with a serving of fruit.

There are very few things in life that can't be made better with a little peanut butter. This recipe looks scrumptious and I appreciate that it comes together really quickly - great breakfast option!

I'm not someone who adds fruit on their toast normally. Recently I've started putting banana on my peanut butter toast. While I don't know how this would taste, I have to say that you have piqued my interest, and I'm going to have to try this out! Great post xxx
