Make perfect avocado toast with a creamy texture and learn three simple topping variations for a quick, healthy breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices artisan bread
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • For Topping 1 (Protein Boost): 2 tablespoons cottage cheese, pinch of Everything Bagel seasoning
  • For Topping 2 (Spicy Umami): 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce or furikake
  • For Topping 3 (Brunch Classic): 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Toast the bread slices until they are golden brown and firm.
  2. While the bread toasts, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a small bowl.
  3. Add the lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the avocado.
  4. Use a fork to mash the avocado until it reaches your desired creaminess. For a very creamy texture, mash thoroughly; for more texture, leave some chunks.
  5. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the two slices of hot toast.
  6. Choose your topping variation: For Topping 1, spread cottage cheese over the avocado and sprinkle with Everything Bagel seasoning. For Topping 2, sprinkle red pepper flakes and drizzle with soy sauce or furikake. For Topping 3, cook the egg to your preference (fried is recommended) and place it on top of the avocado layer.
  7. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use bread that is sturdy enough to hold the topping, like sourdough or whole grain.
  • For the best flavor, season the avocado mixture before spreading it on the toast.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the avocado mixture briefly in a food processor.
