Ingredients

• 6 slices Whole grain bread slices
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons Dried cranberries
• 3 tablespoons Raisins
• 2 tablespoons Chopped almonds
• 2 tablespoons Chopped walnuts
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

Trim the crusts off the bread slices and cut each slice into 4 equal strips to create finger shapes.

Step 3

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter.

Step 4

Add the dried cranberries, raisins, chopped almonds, and chopped walnuts to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is fragrant.

Step 5

Add 2 tablespoons of honey and 0.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon to the skillet. Mix well to coat the fruit and nuts evenly. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

Place the bread fingers on the prepared baking tray. Sprinkle the fruit and nut mixture evenly over the bread, gently pressing it down so it adheres.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the bread fingers are golden and crisp.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the tray.

Step 9

If desired, sprinkle a light dusting of powdered sugar over the fruit bread fingers for garnish.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Fruit Bread Fingers with your favorite cup of tea or coffee.
