Avocado Toast with Feta and Cherry Tomatoes

Avocado toast with feta and cherry tomatoes has become my favorite way to make mornings feel fresh bright and full of flavor. One sunny Saturday I found myself with extra cherry tomatoes from the farmers market and a perfectly ripe avocado waiting on my counter so instead of my usual scrambled eggs I decided to smash the avocado onto some hearty toast and pile it high with juicy tomatoes and crumbly feta and wow it was love at first bite!

The creaminess of the avocado paired with the tangy feta and the sweet burst of cherry tomatoes creates a combination that feels like a mini vacation on a plate so now this toast is my go-to when I want something easy but still totally satisfying and impressive enough to serve to friends for brunch.

Ingredients

• Here’s what I use for this recipe. You can always adjust toppings to your liking!
• Ripe avocado – The creamy base that makes this toast irresistible.
• Cherry tomatoes – Juicy and sweet they add bright flavor and a pop of color.
• Feta cheese – Crumbly and tangy it perfectly balances the creamy avocado.
• Whole grain or sourdough bread – Provides a hearty crunchy foundation.
• Fresh basil – For a fragrant fresh finish.
• Olive oil – Adds a silky richness and ties all the flavors together.
• Lemon juice – Brightens and enhances the avocado’s flavor.
• Salt and black pepper – To season everything just right.

Tools You’ll Need

• Knife – For slicing the avocado and cherry tomatoes easily.
• Fork – I use it to mash the avocado until perfectly creamy.
• Cutting board – Essential for prepping all the fresh toppings.
• Toaster or grill pan – To make the bread crispy and golden.
• Spoon – Helps spread the avocado evenly on the toast.

Instructions

Step 1: Toast the bread

I start by toasting my bread slices until they’re nice and golden with crisp edges that can hold all the toppings.

Step 2: Prep the avocado

I cut the avocado in half remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a bowl. I add a squeeze of lemon juice plus a pinch of salt and mash it all together with a fork until smooth but still a bit chunky.

Step 3: Slice the tomatoes

I slice the cherry tomatoes in half so they’re ready to layer on top later.

Step 4: Assemble the toast

I generously spread the mashed avocado over each toast slice making sure it reaches all the edges.

Step 5: Add toppings

I scatter the sliced cherry tomatoes and crumble the feta on top of the avocado. I then drizzle a little olive oil and sprinkle some freshly cracked black pepper.

Step 6: Garnish

I finish it off with fresh basil leaves for an extra burst of flavor and a beautiful touch.

Step 7: Serve

I enjoy the toast immediately while the bread is still warm and the toppings are fresh and vibrant.

Tips

If you want extra crunch, I sometimes add toasted pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds on top. For a spicy kick, I love adding a pinch of red pepper flakes. You can also rub the toast with a garlic clove before adding the avocado for a subtle garlicky layer.

Ways to Serve

I enjoy serving avocado toast with feta and cherry tomatoes as a standalone breakfast or brunch. It also pairs wonderfully with a side salad for lunch or topped with a poached egg for extra protein.
