• Beginner-Friendly: Even the most novice cooks can master this breakfast recipe; it’s easy to make and can be made in nearly any kitchen setup.

Let’s Get Started! Here’s What You’ll Need:

Ingredients:

Sourdough Bread - Its tangy flavor and chewy texture are a tasty complement to the smooth and creamy avocado. Use fresh, bakery-style bread if possible. Alternatively, you can use whole grain, French bread, or ciabatta.

Avocado - You will need one large, ripe avocado that gives slightly when pressed gently but firmly. Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit before scooping out the flesh to mash.

Lemon Juice - The acid in this citrus juice adds brightness to the mashed avocado, bringing it to life. I recommend fresh juice for the best taste, but you can also use bottled.

Blackberries - For a pop of juicy berry flavor! Wash them well and cut them in half before adding to the toast.

Almonds - Sprinkle on sliced or slivered almonds for a crunchy, nutty finish! You can use shelled pistachios, chopped pecans, or walnuts if you don't have almonds. For an extra indulgent crunch, use candied walnuts! If your nuts are unsalted, you'll want to add a pinch of salt to your avocado mash.

Honey - If you’ve never had honey on avocado, now’s the time! Its sweetness is an excellent match for creamy avocado toast with fruit. Any variety of honey works, though I recommend high-quality or local honey whenever possible! For a mild punch, try hot honey, or swap maple syrup to make this dish vegan.

Equipment:

Toaster or Toaster Oven - Use either of these to toast the bread. Or, toast it in a 350°F oven for 3-6 minutes, turning it halfway through.

Cutting Board & Knife - These will be used to mash the avocado and halve the blackberries.

Measuring Spoons - To measure the lemon juice, almond slices, and avocado. Or, eyeball the ingredients to save on dishes or add more toppings to satisfy a hearty appetite!

How to Make Blackberry Avocado Toast with Honey

Prepare the Ingredients.

Toast the sourdough bread to your desired doneness. Mash the avocado with the lemon juice with a fork on the cutting board until it is your preferred consistency. Slice the blackberries in half.

Add Avocado to Toast.

Spread the mashed avocado evenly on the toasted bread.

Assemble and Serve.

Sprinkle the halved berries and sliced almonds on the avocado. Add a drizzle of honey and enjoy warm!

Recipe Success Tips

• Toast and mash to your preference. For chewier bread, toast it on the lighter end. For crunchier, nuttier bread, toast it longer. Thoroughly mash the avocado to make it smooth and creamy, or give it just a few mashes to keep it chunky.
• Adjust the toppings to taste. Sprinkle on sea salt to balance the sweetness, add an extra squeeze of lemon for brightness, garnish with baby dill for an herbaceous twist, a pinch of flaky sea salt for seasoning, or garnish the blackberry toast with crumbled feta for a briny finish. You can also add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar for tang or chili flakes for a spicy kick.
• Enjoy fresh. The bread is best when served fresh. It does not store well, so make only enough to serve.
• Making it for a crowd. Add a healthy and tasty dish to your weekend brunch spread with a platter of this sourdough avocado toast! Multiply the recipe by the desired amount, toasting the slices of bread on a rimmed baking sheet at 350°F for 5-10 minutes, flipping it halfway until toasted to your liking. Continue with the recipe as directed.
