    Butter. It tastes better. My typical dose is a mere 6 grams, about 40 calories of pure bliss.

    I love lurpack but go with the lighter version. It's 50 odd cals per 10g. A lot but when I cut it out I go back to it and put on again so I fit it in. A banana is nice on toast but it's a bit double carbs. I love peanut butter but it's not low cal. Honey is nice. Or egg mayo. Don't know if any are lower cal though.

    You could try part skim yogurt or cottage cheese?

    How many grams of fat do you eat daily?

    Came in to suggest an egg, but jemhh beat me to it! Heh...

    Whipped cream cheese, honey, jam..
    Or maybe just get some of the flavored breads, like cinnamon or Pepperidge Farns caramel apple or something. Some of those are good on their own...

    Although, how much butter are we talking? 1/2 tbsp of Kerrygold is about 5g of fat at the most...maybe you could reduce the amount of butter, or half butter, half honey?

    I sometimes use philly cream cheese instead of butter to keep calories down. But don't be afraid of fat, fat is good and is needed by your body.

    I can't think of anything I would put on toast that doesn't have any fat. I would just use less butter or cheese or whatever.
    I guess there is honey, jam, mashed bannana, pureed fruit, mashed beans

    Spread on some laughing cow cheese. 35 calories per wedge. Low fat.
