Mango Toast with Hazelnut-Pepita Butter
Savory fruit toast is the new avocado toast. 
INGREDIENTS
4 Servings

  • 1 cup blanched hazelnuts
  • 1 cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • Kosher salt
  • ¼ cup freeze-dried blueberries
  • 2 teaspoons mild red pepper flakes (such as Aleppo-style or Urfa pepper)
  • 4 slices sourdough bread, toasted
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 2 large ripe mangoes, peeled, sliced
  • Honey (for serving)
  • Flaky sea salt
METHOD

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300°. Toast hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until golden brown, 20–25 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, toast pumpkin seeds on a separate baking sheet, tossing once, until just beginning to brown in a few spots and very fragrant, 14–16 minutes.

Step 3

Let hazelnuts and pumpkin seeds cool. Purée in a food processor until a smooth paste forms (this will take several minutes and you will need to scrape down sides a few times.) Taste and season hazelnut–pumpkin seed butter with kosher salt.

Step 4

Finely grind blueberries, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of kosher salt in spice mill or with mortar and pestle. Drizzle toast with 2 Tbsp. oil and spread 2 Tbsp. hazelnut–pumpkin seed butter over each. Top with mango; drizzle with honey and oil. Sprinkle with blueberry–red pepper mixture and sea salt.
