Enjoy a nutrient and energy-dense breakfast that is ready in minutes!
Looking for a flavorful and nutritious breakfast that’s quick and simple to make? Look no further—these smoked salmon avocado toasts are packed with umami flavor and nutrients that provide long-lasting energy and support overall health. I had a bit of fun creating these toasts and making them look more artistic. That’s one of the best parts of homemade food… along with the fact that it costs a fraction of what you’d pay at a restaurant!
If you enjoy a classic lox bagel, you will certainly appreciate this toast, as its flavors are inspired by the iconic New York sandwich. The combination of warm, toasted bread layered with cream cheese, smoked salmon, avocado, capers, and bagel seasoning creates a beautifully balanced and indulgent bite. These toasts are ideal for both a simple breakfast and entertaining guests; the recipe can easily be scaled to accommodate any number of servings. Before diving into the recipe, I would like to briefly introduce the key ingredients that make this dish truly exceptional.
Bread: Select a low fat, rustic, artisan bread such as Italian, French country bread, or sourdough. Try not to use commercial sandwich bread, brioche, croissants, or other breads with higher fat content. The toppings are already rich.
Smoked salmon: Any smoked salmon will work for this recipe. For example, you may use Nova, gravlax, and Smoked Scottish Salmon.
Bagel seasoning: A bagel seasoning blend adds the finishing touches to these toasts. Bagel seasoning is a flavorful blend of white sesame seeds, salt, poppy seeds, dehydrated onions, garlic, onion, and occasionally some other ingredients. You can purchase pre-made bagel seasoning for around $4-5. It's versatile and lasts a long time!
