Jimmy Fallon just revealed his favorite breakfast, and it comes with a little help from Taylor Swift. The Tonight Show host shared his go-to avocado toast recipe, featuring a slice of homemade sourdough straight from Swift’s kitchen. It’s the kind of breakfast crossover we didn’t know we needed, and fans are fully on board.
Swift's Sourdough Obsession
Taylor Swift’s passion for baking has turned into a full-fledged culinary era. After wrapping up her Eras Tour, she’s been diving into the art of sourdough, experimenting with ingredients, and perfecting her technique. Swift reportedly spends much of her downtime baking and creating loaves to share with friends, family, and, apparently, late-night hosts.
Swift spoke about her bread lineup on the New Heights podcast. Her current flavor catalog includes classic sourdough for the purists, blueberry-lemon for a bright twist, cinnamon swirl or cinnamon-raisin for cozy mornings, and even a colorful Funfetti version inspired by her friends’ kids. Each loaf has a personal touch, and gifting them has become one of her favorite ways to connect with people.
Friendship for Breakfast
Fallon and Swift’s friendship has long been rooted in humor and creativity, from surprise appearances on The Tonight Show to shared behind-the-scenes moments. Now, that friendship has made its way into the kitchen. Fallon’s avocado toast feels like a natural extension of their dynamic.
Behind the toast, there’s also a glimpse of Swift’s signature thoughtfulness. Her breadmaking has become a point of interest and also a tribute to the sourdough community. She’s known for giving homemade gifts, often adding witty, personal touches. Sharing a loaf with Fallon fits perfectly into that pattern.
