# What You'll Need:

→ Bread

01 - 12 slices sourdough or multigrain bread

→ Avocado Spread

02 - 4 ripe avocados
03 - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
04 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

06 - 6 radishes, thinly sliced
07 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
08 - 1/2 cup crumbled feta or goat cheese
09 - 1/4 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
10 - 1/4 cup microgreens or baby arugula

# How to Make It:

01 - Toast the bread slices in batches until golden and crisp. Arrange them on a large serving board or platter.
02 - Halve, pit, and scoop the avocados into a bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash until creamy but still slightly chunky.
03 - Spread a generous layer of avocado mash onto each toast, or serve the mash in a bowl for guests to assemble their own.
04 - Arrange the toppings including radishes, cherry tomatoes, cheeses, pumpkin seeds, microgreens, egg slices, and pickled onions in small bowls or directly on the board.
05 - Drizzle olive oil over the avocado toasts. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, flaky salt, and black pepper as desired. Garnish with microgreens or arugula and serve with lemon wedges.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It looks impressive enough to photograph but takes less time than you'd think, which is the ultimate brunch win.
  • Everyone customizes their own plate, so suddenly you're not cooking for different tastes—you're just setting out options.
  • The board itself becomes the centerpiece, turning breakfast into something that feels like an occasion.
02 -
  • Buy your avocados two days before you need them—they ripen on their own timeline, and rushing them with a paper bag never ends well.
  • Toast your bread right before serving, because no matter how pretty this board is, soggy toast underneath beautiful toppings feels like a betrayal.
03 -
  • Keep your avocado mash in a separate bowl with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface—this blocks the air that turns it brown, and you can make it up to an hour ahead.
  • Toast your bread right before guests arrive so you're not juggling a board of warm and cold elements that disagree with each other.
