This vibrant Avocado Toast recipe offers three delicious topping options to customize your toast. Crispy French bread is rubbed with garlic and baked golden, then topped with a creamy, seasoned avocado spread. Choose between a protein-packed fried egg with Everything Bagel Seasoning, a fresh cherry tomato and basil topping with balsamic vinegar, or a savory Mediterranean mix of feta cheese, olives, and oregano. Perfect for a quick, flavorful breakfast or snack, this easy recipe serves 8 and takes just 20 minutes from start to finish.

Ingredients

For the Toast

  • 1 French loaf, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, whole (for rubbing)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Avocado Spread

  • 4 Hass avocados
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Option 1 – Fried Egg Topping

  • Cooking spray
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Everything Bagel Seasoning

Option 2 – Tomato Basil Topping

  • ¼ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil
  • Salt flakes, to taste

Option 3 – Mediterranean Topping

  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup olives, halved
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Toast: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC). Arrange the sliced French loaf on a baking sheet and brush each piece with olive oil. Take a whole garlic clove and rub it across the surface of the bread slices to infuse garlic flavor. Lightly season with salt and pepper and bake for 8-10 minutes until the bread is golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  2. Make the Avocado Spread: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocado until chunky but well combined. Stir in the minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly mixed.
  3. Assemble the Base: Spread the avocado mixture evenly over the toasted French bread slices.
  4. Option 1 – Fried Egg Topping: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook until they reach your preferred doneness, whether sunny side up or over easy. Place the cooked eggs atop the avocado-covered toast and sprinkle with Everything Bagel Seasoning for a savory finish.
  5. Option 2 – Tomato Basil Topping: In a small bowl, toss the halved cherry tomatoes with balsamic vinegar and a pinch of salt. Spoon the tomato mixture over the avocado spread, add fresh basil leaves, and finish with a sprinkle of salt flakes to brighten the flavors.
  6. Option 3 – Mediterranean Topping: Top the avocado-covered toast with crumbled feta cheese and halved olives. Sprinkle oregano evenly over the top and drizzle with a teaspoon of olive oil before serving to add a Mediterranean flair.

Notes

  • For creamier avocado spread, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to prevent browning and enhance flavor.
  • Use ripe but firm avocados to maintain a chunky texture.
  • Customize toppings by mixing and matching the three options or adding your favorite herbs and spices.
  • To save time, prepare the avocado spread ahead and store it in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed on the surface to avoid browning.
  • For a vegan version, skip the fried egg and feta cheese toppings.
