Last updated on June 21st, 2026
This Savoury Miso Avocado Toast with Egg puts a fresh spin on the classic avocado toast combo with delicious results.
Featuring local and seasonal ingredients, this is one of my all-time favourite quick brunch or lunch recipes. It’s so addictive that for the longest time, it was the first thing I’d make as soon as I returned home from travelling.
Here’s everything you’ll need to make this Savoury Miso Avocado Toast with Egg
- 1 avocado
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Two eggs cooked your way
- 2 thick slices Everyday Artisan Bread or sourdough
- Hummus, white (shiro) miso, pea shoots and fresh dill or your herbs/greens of choice
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
What is white (shiro) miso?
Miso is a fermented soybean paste. It has a salty, umami flavour profile and is most often found in Japanese dishes. A few years ago, I started experimenting using miso for things other than ramen and Asian-inspired recipes because of its digestive health benefits. Here, I’ve combined it with hummus for the base and the result is beyond delicious!
This Savoury Miso Avocado Toast with Egg is made all the better with a squeeze of bright lemon, farm fresh eggs, high-protein hummus and my favourite toasted crusty bread. A flavourful, nutrient-rich and satisfying toast combo you’ll want to make again and again!
