Cooking Instructions

  • Start by placing your large egg in a pot of cold water. Bring the water to a boil, cover, and let sit for 9-12 minutes. Afterward, transfer it to an ice bath to make peeling easier.
  • While the egg is cooking, slice your chosen whole grain or gluten-free bread and gather all your seasonings and toppings to have everything ready for assembly.
  • Toast the bread slices until they achieve a golden crispness. This step ensures your base is sturdy enough to hold all the creamy toppings.
  • In a bowl, combine the peeled egg, cottage cheese, and avocado. Mash everything together to your desired consistency, keeping some texture but ensuring it's spreadable.
  • Stir in the paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, Dijon mustard, and chopped green onion until well combined. This mixture creates a flavorful spread for your toast!
  • Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the toasted bread. Finish by sprinkling everything bagel seasoning and hemp seeds atop for added flavor and crunch.
  • Enjoy your Homemade Cottage Cheese Breakfast Toast while it’s warm and fresh for the best taste experience!

Notes

Drizzle with a touch of olive oil for extra richness. Assemble your toast just before eating to ensure it stays crispy.
