This avocado toast recipe is not only a classic but a ‘smash toast’ with avocados and an endless variety of toppings.

Flavor: This avocado toast has a creamy, buttery flavor balanced by the crisp, tangy bite of sourdough.
Skill Level: Just mash, toast, and top! Eat for a quick breakfast or a post-workout snack.
Budget Tip: Stock up on avocados when they’re on sale and freeze them in slices.
Serving Suggestions: Make a DIY Avocado Toast Bar for brunch and serve with mimosas.

Ingredient Tips For Avocado Toast

Avocados: Choose fresh avocados that are a little soft when you squeeze them. The skins should be either dark green or nearly black, depending on the variety. Ripen avocados on the counter, and then store them in the refrigerator once they are ripe.
Bread: Any bread works for avocado toast. Artisan bread, like sourdough, is great because you can slice it into any thickness, but even sandwich bread works, as long as it’s sturdy enough to hold the toppings. Bagels are another great choice.
Seasonings: A swipe of fresh garlic adds a savory flavor to the rich, buttery flavor of avocado, but it’s optional.

Avocado Toast

This avocado toast is easy to make and a hearty satisfying meal for busy mornings.

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 5 minutes

Total Time 10 minutes

▢ 1 avocado
▢ 2 slices sourdough bread or any variety of bread
▢ 1 clove garlic optional, cut in half (skin on)
▢ kosher salt and black pepper to taste
▢ drizzle extra virgin olive oil good quality

Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit.
Scoop out the avocado flesh with a spoon and add it to a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash, leaving some small chunks.
Toast the bread to your liking.
While the toast is still hot, lightly rub the surface with the cut side of the fresh garlic clove (optional).
Divide the mashed avocado over the toast and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

The avocado can be mashed as smooth or as chunky as you’d like it. Avocado oxidizes (turns brown) quickly, so mashed avocado should be eaten right away. If using only half of the avocado, leave the pit in the half that will be refrigerated for later use. This will help keep it fresh a bit longer.

Optional Avocado Toast Toppings:

everything bagel seasoning
fried egg and crispy bacon bits
lox, capers, minced onion
tomato, bocconcini, basil, balsamic glaze
sriracha and honey
