PERSONALIZE YOUR TOAST

Aside from the typical sugar fest of maple syrup, you can add a touch of sweetness using fresh fruits (such as berries, bananas, kiwis), chopped nuts, or even a drizzle of honey.

Get creative! Add flavor and color that suits your palette, and enjoy the alternatives you can add to make your breakfast fun, healthy, and energizing.

Topped with sliced strawberries and bananas for a sweet, healthy touch.
