Hash Brown Avocado Toast with Egg
Avocado toast took the world by storm several years ago and its popularity has never waned. Most likely because it’s so easy, delicious, healthy, satisfying, and versatile. Five pretty great things, for sure.
My favorite way to make avocado toast isn’t with bread, though – it’s with a hash brown! Hash Brown Avocado Toast is the way to go, my friends.
The base for this avocado toast recipe is a crispy golden hash brown patty smothered with seasoned ripe mashed avocado, then finished with an egg, salsa, and some feta cheese. That’s my favorite way to make it, but the possibilities are practically endless. Variations are included below so you can easily keep your toast interesting every time!
Why We Love It
- Quick and easy. This hash brown “toast” is practically effortless. The avocado mash takes minutes to whip up while the hash brown cooks in the air fryer. Breakfast is ready in minutes.
- Affordable. All the ingredients are simple, available at any common grocery store, and won’t burn a hole in your wallet.
- Versatile. You can easily add some bacon or ham, vary the type of egg (or even omit), use different cheese, and include some herbs or other seasonings to suit your taste. Make one toast or several.
- Healthy. Avocados are loaded with nutrients including fiber, healthy fats, magnesium and more. There’s also no flour in this hash brown avocado toast, making it a great option for anyone with gluten sensitivities. (Just make sure to double check the hash brown packaging, since all brands vary.)
- Hearty and filling. Including avocado, potatoes, cheese, and eggs, it will keep you feeling satisfied after breakfast is over.
Ingredients Needed
This avocado toast recipe uses hash browns instead of bread and just a few other simple ingredients.
(Scroll below to the printable recipe card for details and measurements.)
- Hash Brown Patties – Precooked frozen hash brown patties. No need to defrost them first.
- Avocado – Our star ingredient. Choose a ripe avocado without blemishes or brown spots.
- Lemon Juice – Fresh lemon juice for best flavor. Skip the bottled stuff, you will taste the difference.
- Sriracha – For a nice little bit of heat and added flavor.
- Seasonings – Simple salt and pepper season the mashed avocado.
- Eggs – Top your toast with a fried egg, poached egg, or scrambled eggs.
- Salsa – Salsa and avocado love one another. Pico de Gallo is also delish.
- Cheese – We finish off our toast with a bit of crumbled feta cheese. Cotija is another good choice.
Recipe Variations
Crispy hash brown patties are the ultimate base for sweet and savory toppings, making this recipe very versatile. Here are some ways to change it up.
- Everything Bagel. We’re pretty obsessed with our everything bagel seasoning and love to sprinkle it on, well, everything! It would go great on this toast along with some smoked salmon.
- Mushroom-Spinach. Sauté some mushrooms, spinach, and garlic in a bit of butter. Season with salt and pepper and stir in some herbs, if desired.
- Tomato-Basil. Fresh ripe sliced tomatoes, balsamic glaze, and fresh torn basil leaves.
- Other toppings. Pickled red onions, pickled radish, or candied jalapeños are like little added flavor explosions.

How to Make Hash Brown Avocado Toast
It couldn’t be easier to make this hash brown toast in just a couple simple steps.
(Scroll below to the printable recipe card for details and measurements.)
- Mash the avocado. Lightly mash the avocado until it’s smooth, but still has texture. Mix in the lemon juice, sriracha, and some salt and pepper, to taste.
- Air fry the hash browns. Place frozen hash brown patties in your air fryer basket, in a single layer, leaving space in between each patty. Air fry at 400F for 12 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Cook the eggs. Make your eggs any way you want. We love a fried egg or scrambled eggs on top of our avocado toast.
- Assemble. Top each hash brown with some mashed avocado, a cooked egg, a turn or two of fresh cracked pepper, 2 tablespoons of salsa, and 1 tablespoon cheese. Serve immediately.
Preparation and Serving Suggestions
You can cook as many hash browns as you are able to fit in your air fryer basket, but I’d recommend no more than 4 at a time to not overcrowd the air fryer and make sure they crisp up properly. If making more than 4 toasts, air fry in batches, or you can certainly bake them in the oven!
Avocado toast should be served immediately, it’s not a make ahead meal or something that can sit for too long because the avocado will turn brown pretty quickly.
