Why Choose Homemade Bread for Toast?
Homemade and sourdough breads take toast to a whole new level. They’re less processed and loaded with nutrients. Plus, sourdough bread is naturally easier to digest and may help your body absorb more vitamins and minerals—all while adding amazing flavor to your toast.

You can also try fruit jams made without refined sugar—they’re a delicious way to add fiber and vitamins. Making these at home also means you’re in control of the ingredients, so you know your kids are getting a wholesome snack.
Toast can be a balanced snack!
These easy recipes check all the boxes for a balanced piece of toast as a snack: carbs, fiber, healthy fats, and protein. They’ll keep your kids energized, full, and ready to tackle their next adventure.
