Bear Claw Blueberry Toast



Craving a pastry but want to keep it brain-healthy? This 5-minute toast delivers all the indulgent vibes of a bear claw or blueberry Danish—without the guilt. The secret is the almond-yogurt base: it broils up golden and slightly crispy, just like the almond paste filling in a classic bear claw. Fresh blueberries get poked right into the warm base, then broiled until they burst into a glossy, jammy topping. A final sprinkle of cinnamon and sliced almonds gives you that bakery-worthy finish. Best part? You're hitting three MIND diet superfoods in one bite: berries, nuts and whole grains.
