Ingredients

  • 1 loaf of artisanal bread (sourdough or whole grain) – This is the foundation of your toasts, and the heartiness of artisanal bread makes it perfect.
  • 1 ripe avocado – Creamy and rich, it adds a delightful texture.
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced – Fresh and juicy, tomatoes bring color and flavor.
  • 1 cup fresh arugula – Peppery and vibrant, arugula offers a refreshing crunch.
  • 4 oz goat cheese, crumbled – Tangy and creamy, goat cheese elevates the dish.
  • 4 oz smoked salmon – A luxurious touch that adds depth to your toasts.
  • 2 large eggs – Perfect for topping your toast, adding protein and richness.
  • 2 tbsp olive oil – For drizzling and toasting the bread.
  • Salt and pepper, to taste – Simple seasonings that enhance all the flavors.
  • Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, lemon zest, fresh herbs (such as dill or chives) – These add a personal touch and extra flavor.

How to Make Gourmet Brunch Toast Trio Board 🍅✨

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will get your bread toasty and delicious.
  2. Slice the artisanal bread into thick slices and lay them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Trust me, this step is crucial for that perfect crunch!
  3. Pop the bread in the oven and toast for about 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on it; we want it just right!
  4. While the bread is toasting, prepare the avocado. Mash it in a bowl, seasoning with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice. This will keep it fresh and flavorful.
  5. In a separate pan, poach or fry the eggs to your liking. I love a perfectly runny yolk for this recipe!
  6. Once the bread is toasted, it’s time to assemble the trio:
    • For the first toast, spread the mashed avocado and top it with sliced tomato and a handful of arugula.
    • For the second toast, spread a layer of goat cheese and top it with smoked salmon and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
    • For the third toast, place the poached or fried egg on top and season with salt, pepper, and your choice of red pepper flakes or lemon zest.
  7. Arrange all your beautifully topped toasts on a serving board. Serve immediately and enjoy the smiles that follow!

Substitutions & Additions

  • If you don’t have goat cheese, cream cheese or feta would work wonderfully.
  • Feel free to use any type of bread you prefer; even a gluten-free option is great!
  • Add in some roasted red peppers or sliced cucumbers for extra flavor and crunch.

Tips for Success

  • Make sure your avocado is perfectly ripe for the best taste.
  • Keep an eye on the bread while toasting; you want it golden, not burnt!
  • You can prep the toppings ahead of time to make assembly quicker.

How to Store Gourmet Brunch Toast Trio Board 🍅✨

This dish is best enjoyed fresh. However, if you have leftovers, store the toppings separately in airtight containers in the fridge. The toasted bread can be kept in a zip-lock bag at room temperature for a day. Reheat in the oven briefly to regain some crispiness.

FAQs

  • Can I make this vegan? Yes! Substitute the eggs with tofu scramble and use vegan cream cheese instead of goat cheese.
  • How can I make this dish more filling? Add some sliced turkey or chicken breast for extra protein!
