Loaded Avocado Toast (Printable)

Sourdough topped with mashed avocado, fresh veggies, feta, and jammy eggs for a hearty start.

# What You Need:

→ Bread & Base

01 - 2 large slices sourdough or multigrain bread
02 - 1 ripe avocado
03 - 1 small lime, juiced
04 - 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
05 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Toppings

06 - 2 large eggs
07 - ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
08 - ¼ cup cucumber, thinly sliced
09 - 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
10 - 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
11 - 2 tablespoons radishes, thinly sliced
12 - 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
13 - ½ teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
14 - Microgreens or arugula, for garnish

# Step-by-Step:

01 - Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp.
02 - Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently lower in the eggs and boil for 7 minutes for jammy yolks. Transfer eggs to an ice bath, peel, and slice in half.
03 - In a bowl, mash the avocado with lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper until creamy but retaining some texture.
04 - Spread the mashed avocado generously over each slice of toast.
05 - Layer cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, radishes, and crumbled feta evenly over the avocado spread.
06 - Top each toast with one halved egg. Sprinkle with optional chili flakes, fresh herbs, and garnish with microgreens or arugula.
07 - Serve immediately, seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It comes together in less than 20 minutes but feels like you made something impressive.
  • The combination of creamy avocado, runny egg yolk, and crisp toast creates a texture experience that's endlessly satisfying.
  • You can customize it endlessly depending on what's in your fridge, so it never feels boring.
02 -
  • The 7-minute egg timer is not a suggestion; undercooked and you'll have watery yolks, overcooked and you lose that precious jammy center that makes this whole thing worth eating.
  • Don't prep your avocado until you're ready to assemble, because it will brown despite your best intentions, and nobody wants an oxidized green situation on their breakfast.
03 -
  • Buy your avocado a day or two before you plan to make this, so it's perfectly ripe and not that mealy disappointment that ruins everything.
  • Toast your bread in a dry pan instead of a toaster for more control and the ability to get it exactly as crispy as you want.
