Dunkin Donuts Avocado Toast

My first encounter with Dunkin’s avocado toast was during a rushed morning commute when I needed something quick but nourishing. One bite of their perfectly seasoned avocado spread on hearty sourdough, and I was hooked. After countless trips to Dunkin (and quite a few dollars spent), I decided to recreate this beloved breakfast at home. After much testing, I’m excited to share this spot-on copycat recipe that tastes just like the original – and maybe even better since you can customize it to your preferences!

Avocado Toast at Dunkin

It’s tough to beat ripe, creamy mashed avocado on top of toasted bread, but leave it to Dunkin’ to find a way. Dunkin’s avocado toast is a massively popular new menu item with ripe, creamy avocado spread on top of a thick-cut, hearty sourdough slice and a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning blend. The popularity of avocado toast caused Dunkin to create its own version. 

This recipe is so easy to throw together yet still unbelievably delicious. Make it for a brunch-worthy breakfast or as a light supper.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

• Customizable to your taste preferences

More Than Just Breakfast

Dunkin’s Avocado Toast is so good that you will want to enjoy it more than once a day. You can, by turning this recipe into a satisfying dinner with a bit of protein.

Start with a crumble of bacon. The smoky and salty flavor of bacon goes incredibly well with the creaminess of avocados. Please ensure the bacon is extra crispy, but remember to blot it before using it.

Alternatively, you can try a couple of slices of smoked salmon, which will go amazingly well with the Everything Bagel Seasoning. Try adding a thin slice of red onion for additional crunch and flavor.

Recipe Ingredients

Here’s a list of what you need:

• Sourdough bread slices
• Avocado – be sure to use the best avocados you want ripe ones
• Lemon juice – freshly squeezed is best 
• Table salt – you could use Kosher salt, Pink Himalayan, or even sea salt if you desire  
• Everything Bagel Seasoning
• Crispy cooked bacon, chopped (optional)

How to Pick a Ripe Avocado

Recipes with only a few simple ingredients demand the best ones. And for this dish, delicious avocados make all the difference!

Buying avocados is usually frustratingly hit-or-miss, but there are a few ways that you can do to increase your chances of bringing home quality ones. Here are a few ways to find the best avocado. After all, there are no second chances once you cut into an avocado.

1. Squeeze them in the proper place. One of the best methods of checking whether an avocado is ready for eating is to press lightly on the stem end. Stem-ends that spring back mean the avocado is ready to eat, but don’t use it if it’s hard or too soft.
2. Don’t expect all hard avocados to ripen eventually. It’s frustrating when avocados don’t get soft enough to eat, even after waiting or using other tricks like keeping them in a paper bag with a banana. Avocados that farmers picked too soon will rot before becoming edible. Stay away from rock-hard avocados in the store.
3. Don’t buy avocados in bulk. Buying in bulk is usually much cheaper, but you’re probably wasting your money if you can use all of them within a few days. Sticking the avocados in the fridge will slow down the ripening process slightly.

How to Make Avocado Toast

1. Mash avocado in a bowl. Add lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.

2. Toast the sourdough bread slices.

3. Spread the avocado mixture on the toasted bread and sprinkle bagel seasoning on top. Sprinkle bacon on top if desired.

Tips For Making and Serving Dunkin’s Avocado Toast

• Spread a bit of mayonnaise on the bread before adding the avocado spread. The contrast between the smooth avocado spread and the crispy bread is part of the beauty of avocado toast. A thin layer of mayonnaise helps protect the bread from becoming soggy.
• Spice things up. Mix a few drops of your favorite hot sauce into the avocado spread mixture to liven things up a bit.
• Store leftover avocado spread underwater. Place any remaining avocado mash into a bowl big enough so that it fills it only halfway. Slowly pour cold water on top of the avocado mash to keep the avocados from browning.

Variations and Dietary Modifications

• Keeps for 1-2 days in refrigerator
• Pour off water and stir before using
