Nut Butter & Toast Two Ways with Homemade Strawberry Chia Jam and Caramelized Bananas

First, prepare the homemade strawberry chia jam: Heat 1 cup of cut-up strawberries in a pot. Let them simmer for about 5 minutes, then mash them. Stir in 1 tablespoon of chia seeds. Continue to stir, then store the jam in a glass jar. It will keep for about 4-5 days.

Next, prepare the caramelized bananas: Coat a pan with ghee or coconut oil. Add sliced bananas and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Cook over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side, until caramelized.

To assemble your toast: Take 2 slices of fresh sourdough bread. Top one slice with cashew butter and the prepared strawberry chia jam. Top the second slice with almond butter, chocolate chips (if desired), and the warm caramelized bananas.
