Avocado Toast with Egg Recipe

I first saw this idea on the Stay Fit Mom Instagram feed, and I’ll admit, the combo made me pause: avocado toast with cottage cheese, grated hard-boiled egg, honey, and red pepper flakes? I had to try it.

It sounded a little unusual, but it works so well. The avocado and cottage cheese are creamy, the egg makes it filling, the honey balances the savory flavors, and the red pepper flakes add just enough heat.

Ingredients for High-Protein Avocado Toast

Bread – the recipe works with any slice of bread, but I prefer a thick slice of crusty bread, like my Sourdough, No-Knead Artisan Bread, Focaccia, or Easy Dutch Oven Bread. Gluten-free bread will also work.
Avocado – Use a ripe avocado that gives slightly when gently pressed – it’s easier to mash.
Seasoning – Everything But the Bagel Seasoning flavors the avocado, but you can swap with a pinch of salt and pepper. Red pepper flakes can be added to taste depending on your heat preference.
Cottage cheese – use low-fat to keep the calories in check, or swap to make ricotta toast for a different flavor of avocado toast
Boiled egg – Use my easy boiled eggs method, then grate the peeled egg over the toast.
Honey – a light drizzle balances the creamy, savory toppings without making the toast taste sweet.

Why grate the hard-boiled egg?

Grating the egg gives a light, fluffy texture, so you get a little egg in every bite without big chunks sliding off the toast.

How to Make Avocado Toast with Egg

This high-protein avocado toast recipe is quick to make, but tastes gourmet! It’s perfect for a weekday morning or a slow weekend brunch.

Toast the bread – Butter both sides of the bread and toast it in a skillet until golden and crisp. This adds great texture and flavor, and it’s a great way to revive bread that isn’t super fresh.

Add avocado – Mash the avocado over the toast and season with everything bagel seasoning.
Add cottage cheese – Spoon the cottage cheese over the avocado layer.
Grate the egg – Use the small holes of a box grater to grate the hard-boiled egg over the top.
Finish and serve – Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with red pepper flakes to taste. This is my favorite way to finish the avocado cottage cheese toast. I know it feels daring, but it’s definitely worth trying!

Easy Variations for Avocado Toast

Bacon – add crispy bits of bacon for a smoky, salty finish
Fried Egg – swap a hard-boiled egg for a fried egg
Ricotta Cheese – use ricotta instead of cottage cheese for a softer, milder flavor
Hot Honey – try hot honey for sweet heat, or substitute chili crisp for a savory finish.

My favorite high-protein avocado toast recipe makes it so easy to get up in the morning! You’ll love this combination of creamy avocado, cool cottage cheese, bagel seasoning, fluffy grated egg, and just a drizzle of honey because the flavors meld together perfectly and fill you up for hours.
