    I absolutely love this avocado toast! I usually have smoothies or vegan oatmeal for breakfast, as I have a sweet tooth, but sometimes I feel like eating something savory but healthy at the same time.

    Bread and avocado are probably one of my favorite combinations... And that's why I decided to try this recipe! They work amazingly well together and if you're an avocado lover you will really enjoy this dish.

    Besides, you can customize it with your favorite ingredients, spices, or herbs. Garlic powder, sea salt, and nutritional yeast are my go-to spices and I add them to everything I can... And with this recipe, they taste SO good!

    Avocado toast, simple, tasty, and nutritious. It's the perfect breakfast or snack for when you're craving something savory and filling. To make it you only need 7 ingredients and just 5 minutes of your time!

    How to make avocado toast - Step by step

    Step-by-step photos of how to make an avocado toast
    • Toast the slices of bread in the oven or toaster (optional) (photo 1).
    • Add the avocado and lemon juice to a mixing bowl and mash with a fork (photo 2).
    • Divide the mashed avocado evenly among the toasts (photo 3), and top with a pinch of salt, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and a dash of red pepper flakes (optional) (photo 4).
    • Serve immediately.

    Pro tips

    • Use store-bought bread (gluten-free if needed) or make my easy rye and spelt bread or gluten-free bread. You can also use crackers or rice cakes.
    • Add your favorite spices and dried or fresh herbs, or any other ingredient you want to.
    • You can omit the red pepper flakes if you don't like them.
    • Feel free to add some extra virgin olive oil or any other oil you have on hand.
    • These toasts are also delicious with some vegan Parmesan cheese on top.

    Is avocado toast healthy?

    Of course! This is one of the healthiest breakfasts or snacks you'll have. It's made with raw and whole ingredients, and avocados are incredibly nutritious and have lots of health benefits. Besides, you can also choose what kind of bread you'll be eating to completely customize your meal!

    How to serve avocado toast

    Although it is a complete breakfast, you can serve it as a part of a bigger breakfast (or even brunch!). Feel free to eat it with coffee, oat milk, or any other kind of plant milk, natural orange juice, tofu scramble, and breakfast potatoes. Go ahead and serve it with your favorite food!

    Can I keep the avocado toast in the fridge?

    I'd recommend you eat it right when you make it, as the avocado will oxidize and turn brown, and the toast will become soft and mushy! As this recipe only takes about 5 minutes to make, it's perfect to prepare just before eating it.
