Toast Hawaii doesn’t really fit on my blog, does it? I usually always make sure that the recipes are wholesome and healthy. However, I just had to post this dish because it was an absolute classic for Christmas and New Year’s Eve in our family for a long time. When my grandma was alive, she always wanted Toast Hawaii. You could also tell she liked it because she kept asking for seconds. When I switched to a vegan diet, I didn’t think about this delicious combination for a long time. However, this year we celebrate the great comeback of Toast Hawaii. Are you with us?

You may have heard that I did a semester abroad in Hawaii during my studies. Therefore, I can also confirm firsthand that this dish is definitely not from there. If you look around on Google, you will find an article about Germany’s first television chef named Carl Clemens Wilmenrod, from the Westerwald. He introduced the Toast Hawaii already in the fifties on television. The original recipe has not changed to this day, consisting of a slice of toast, some butter, ham, pineapple, cheese and not to forget a cocktail cherry.
For the vegan version, I use light spelt toast (or a gluten-free version), some margarine, smoked tofu, pineapple slices, and vegan processed cheese. On the cocktail cherry I have renounced, because I had none in the house and also so no use for it. Once everything is layered, it goes into the oven and is baked for 15 minutes at 175 degrees convection .
TIP: It is important to remove the toasts from the oven when the baking time is up, otherwise they can quickly become dry.
