🐻 Ingredients

• 1 slice of bread

• Biscoff spread (or any spread of your choice – Nutella, peanut butter, cream cheese)

• Crushed Biscoff biscuits (optional for extra crunch!)

• Edible eyes

• Black icing pen (for the smile and nose)

• A mug and two teaspoons (for shaping)

🍞 Method

1. Toast the Bread
Lightly toast a slice of bread until golden brown.

2. Cut the Bear Face
Use the base of a mug to stamp a circle out of the middle of the toast – this will be the bear’s face. Then, with two teaspoons, carefully cut out two ear shapes from the leftover edges.

3. Spread & Sprinkle
Spread the bear face and ears with Biscoff spread. If you're feeling extra fancy, sprinkle on crushed Biscoff biscuits for that lovely crunch.

4. Add Features
Pop on edible eyes and draw on a smile and nose using a black icing pen.

5. Assemble & Enjoy
Stick the ears next to the face, and you’ve got yourself one beary cute toast!

🍓 Serving Suggestions

Serve with a handful of berries or a glass of milk for a complete and balanced snack. Great as a breakfast surprise or a weekend treat.

🔄 Easy Variations

• Use Different Spreads: Try peanut butter, chocolate spread, or even jam for different flavours and colours.

• Make Other Animals: Add banana slices for monkey ears, or strawberries for bunny cheeks – the only limit is your imagination.

• Add Texture: Swap in crushed cornflakes or granola for a nut-free crunch.

🙋 FAQs

Can I prep these ahead of time?
They’re best fresh – but you can toast and cut the shapes ahead, then let kids decorate when ready.

Can I make this gluten-free?
Absolutely – just use your favourite gluten-free bread.

What if I don’t have edible eyes?
No problem! Use blueberries, raisins, or chocolate chips instead.

💡 Tip

Let little ones lead the decorating! It’s a great way to boost fine motor skills, spark creativity, and give them ownership of their snack.
