Making Peanut Butter and Fruit Toast

About This Video

In this guided activity video, Olivia and Dustin make a simple healthy toast using peanut butter and fresh fruit.

The video is short, friendly, and easy to follow. It gives viewers a simple example of turning familiar ingredients into a colorful snack, breakfast, or light meal.

How to Use This Video

Use this video as a quick snack activity, breakfast idea, or simple food-prep routine.

Caregivers can gather the ingredients ahead of time and make the toast alongside the viewer. The first time, the caregiver may want to model each step. Over time, the viewer may be able to take on more of the routine, such as choosing the fruit, spreading the peanut butter, arranging the toppings, or preparing their own plate.

The recipe can be adjusted based on preferences, allergies, dietary needs, or available ingredients. Peanut butter, almond butter, sunflower butter, bananas, berries, or other favorite fruits could all work.

Because this activity involves a toaster, utensils, and food preparation, caregivers should provide support as needed with heat safety, slicing fruit, spreading ingredients, portioning, and making safe food choices.

Over time, this can become a familiar snack routine that supports choice, kitchen participation, and growing independence.
