FAQs
What type of bread is best for avocado toast?
Whole-grain, sourdough, multigrain, sprouted, or gluten-free bread all work beautifully based on preference.
Can I prepare the avocado in advance?
Yes—mash with lemon juice and store in an airtight container for up to 24 hours; it may darken slightly on top.
What’s the ideal way to cook the eggs?
Poached eggs provide runny yolks, soft-boiled for a firmer center, and fried eggs for ease.
Can I make this vegan?
Yes—skip the egg and enjoy with fruit and microgreens, or add plant-based protein like tofu scramble or chickpeas.
How do I keep the avocado from browning?
Acid from lemon juice helps. Store it in a sealed container, pressing plastic wrap onto the surface to limit air contact.
Is this recipe kid-friendly?
Absolutely—adjust the toppings to suit your child’s taste; serve eggs whole or sliced.
Can I use other fruits instead of strawberries?
Yes—berries, melon, peaches, or apple slices pair well.
Can I assemble this ahead of time?
Prepare the avocado spread and toast separately; assemble and add eggs just before eating.
Are there healthy add-ons?
Yes—add chia seeds, hemp hearts, microgreens, feta, or goat cheese for additional nutrients.
How do I make it spicier?
Sprinkle red pepper flakes or drizzle with hot honey or Sriracha for a flavor kick.
