# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's genuinely ready in ten minutes, which means you can actually eat a real breakfast on a weekday without stress.
  • The textural contrast between creamy avocado, crisp apple, and crunchy seeds hits every part of your mouth at once in the best way possible.
  • You look like you have your life together when you serve this, even if you made it half-asleep.
02 -
  • Never slice your avocado more than five minutes before assembly, or it will brown no matter how much lemon juice you use.
  • The bread must be hot when you add the avocado, because the warmth keeps it from feeling dense and cold against the creamy spread.
03 -
  • The order of assembly matters more than you'd think, toasting the bread right before serving ensures it stays crisp underneath the toppings instead of softening into a soggy mess.
  • If your pumpkin seeds are unsalted and plain, give them a quick toast in a dry pan for two minutes before sprinkling them on, it unlocks their nutty flavor and makes the whole toast taste more complete.
