How to Make the Best Apple Toast

There’s something wonderfully comforting about warm, caramelized apples piled high on crispy toast. This Cinnamon Apple Toast is the perfect cozy breakfast that comes together in under 15 minutes using ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.

The magic of this recipe lies in the simplicity—tender apple slices get a quick sauté in butter or coconut oil, then a hit of warming spices and a drizzle of maple syrup transforms them into something truly special. The apples become soft and slightly caramelized while the toast stays perfectly crisp underneath, creating an irresistible contrast of textures.

Whether you’re looking for a quick weekday breakfast or a leisurely weekend brunch treat, this apple toast delivers. Feel free to customize it with your favorite nut butter spread on the toast before adding the apples, or toss in some raisins while the apples cook for extra sweetness. It’s naturally vegan when made with coconut oil, making it a crowd-pleaser for just about everyone.

Instructions

Prepare the Apples

  1. Slice the apples into ½-inch slices. Heat the butter or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. When warm, place apples in the skillet. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and sauté until tender, stirring, about 5-6 minutes.

Assemble the Toast

  1. While the apples cook, toast your bread.
  2. Once the apples are tender, add a generous sprinkle of cinnamon (or try the other spices) and cook one more minute.
  3. Drizzle with the maple syrup, stir, and let the apples caramelize for just a few seconds. Turn heat off.
  4. Spoon the warm apples over your toast, letting the drippings moisten the bread. Optionally, spread almond butter on the toast first before layering the apples on top.

Notes

  • For extra sweetness, use honey crisp apples which have a natural sweetness that caramelizes beautifully.
  • Try adding a sprinkle of cardamom for a unique and aromatic twist.
  • This recipe is easily made vegan by using coconut oil and vegan butter.
