Whipped Feta Strawberry Toast

This is the toast that made everyone stop scrolling. Whipped feta is silky, tangy, and goes with just about everything sweet. Add ripe strawberries and a honey drizzle and you have breakfast that actually feels special.

Ingredients

• 200g block-style feta cheese
• 3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 thick slices sourdough bread
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
• 2 teaspoons honey
• Black pepper, to taste
• Fresh basil leaves, optional

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Whip the Feta

Add feta, cream cheese, olive oil, and lemon juice to a food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides once or twice. The mixture should be fluffy and spreadable.

Step 2: Toast the Bread

Toast sourdough slices until golden and crisp on the outside but still a little soft in the center. Thick slices work best here, about 1-inch thick.

Step 3: Assemble and Serve

Slather the whipped feta generously over each toast. Layer sliced strawberries on top. Drizzle with honey, crack fresh black pepper over everything, and finish with basil leaves if you have them. Eat immediately.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with a side of scrambled eggs or a simple arugula salad for a complete breakfast.
• Use it as an afternoon snack or a light lunch with a glass of sparkling water and lemon.

Tips

• Use a good quality block feta, not pre-crumbled. The difference in texture is significant.
• If the whipped feta is too thick, add a tablespoon of warm water and blend again.
• Ripe strawberries are key here. Underripe ones will be too firm and sour.
• Make the whipped feta ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days. It actually tastes better the next day.
