Ingredients

  • 1 French loaf (thinly sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove (whole)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 hass avocados
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • Cooking spray
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Everything Bagel Seasoning
  • ¼ cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil
  • Salt flakes
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup olives (halved)
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC). Arrange the sliced French loaf on a baking sheet and brush each piece with olive oil. Rub a whole garlic clove across the surface of the bread for added flavor. Lightly season with salt and pepper, then bake for 8–10 minutes until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  2. Step 2: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until chunky. Stir in the minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Step 3: Spread the avocado mixture evenly over the toasted bread slices.
  4. Step 4: Choose your preferred topping option:
    1. Option 1: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. Crack eggs into the pan and cook to your desired doneness. Place eggs on top of the avocado toast and sprinkle with Everything Bagel Seasoning.
    2. Option 2: Toss halved cherry tomatoes with balsamic vinegar and a pinch of salt. Spoon the tomatoes over the avocado toast, add fresh basil, and finish with flaky salt.
    3. Option 3: Top the toast with crumbled feta cheese and halved olives. Sprinkle oregano and drizzle olive oil over the top before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, try toasting the bread a little longer for a crunchier base.
  • You can substitute fresh basil with arugula or spinach for a different green taste.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice to the mashed avocado to prevent browning and add brightness.
  • For a vegan version, skip the eggs and feta and use marinated tofu or a sprinkle of nutritional yeast instead.

Storage

Avocado toast is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store the toasted bread and avocado mixture separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Reheat the bread briefly in a toaster or oven before assembling. Avoid storing assembled toast as the bread will become soggy.

How to Serve

FAQs

Can I use other types of bread instead of French loaf?

Yes, whole grain, sourdough, or rye breads work well. Just slice them thinly and toast to your preferred crispness.

How do I keep the avocado from turning brown?

Adding lemon juice to the mashed avocado and storing it covered tightly helps slow browning. Also, prepare avocado toast just before serving for the best color and flavor.
