How to make Paddington Bear Toast

First, start by cutting banana slices and picking out blueberries of the same size. You want the blueberries to be close in size so the eyes are equal. You can use a larger blueberry for the nose!

Toast your bread and spread either Nutella, peanut butter, or marmalade onto the toast while it’s still warm.

After you put on your spread, add two banana slices to the top corners of the toast to act as the bear’s ears (if you’re making the Paddington inspired toast, you can skip putting on the banana slices for the ears). Then add a banana slice for the nose in the middle of the toast.

Take whichever spread you’ve chosen and add a small dollop onto the back of a blueberry, then place that onto the banana slice you are using for the nose. This keeps the blueberry from sliding off.

Add two blueberries for the eyes, however close or far apart as you’d like.

For the Paddington bear toast, flatten a red fruit roll-up by unrolling it.

Have an adult take clean scissors and cut a curved/crescent shape out of the fruit roll up, also cut out a square/oval shape. This will make Paddington’s hat.

Then, roll flat a blue/green fruit roll-up and cut the green side off with clean scissors. Cut two triangles out of the blue roll-up for Paddington’s jacket collar and place onto the toast!

Kids will swoon over this Paddington inspired bear toast, and they will love helping make it as well! Can you think of a better way to eat your toast in the morning? For another fun character inspired treat, check out our Cookie Monster Freakshakes!
