Hummus Toast with Scrambled Eggs

This quick and easy hummus toast with scrambled eggs is made with hearty, whole grain bread and seasoned with za’atar. 

My kids frequently ask for eggs and toast for breakfast, so I love coming up with fun and creative ways to make it interesting while also maximizing the nutrition. While there’s nothing wrong with buttered toast (who doesn’t love butter?), I decided to swap it out recently with hummus to give the dish extra protein, fiber, and healthy fats. This decadent Hummus Toast with Scrambled Eggs might look fancy but it couldn’t be easier to make.

Ingredients

• Bread: I love to use a whole-grain or seedy bread for my toast, but a sourdough, or even a gluten-free bread can be used.
• Hummus: A delicious spread or dip made from chickpeas, I love to use homemade hummus, and an original or roasted garlic hummus both taste delicious!
• Tomato: Thinly sliced tomato adds a bit of texture along with some bright acidity to the toast.
• Eggs: My favorite eggs to top this toast is scrambled, but a fried egg would taste great as well.
• Za’atar: Adds a bit of a Lebanese twist of flavor to the toast, and the za’atar seasoning pairs great with the hummus.

How to make Hummus Toast with Scrambled Eggs

Start your hummus toast with scrambled eggs by scrambling your eggs with a bit of salt and pepper for flavor.

Then, toast your bread slices and spread hummus evenly over each.

Top the hummus toast with a couple slices of tomato and season with some salt and pepper. Top with some of your scrambled eggs.

Finish by sprinkling each with some za’atar, and some fresh scallions. Then serve and enjoy your Hummus Toast with Scrambled Eggs!

Shake Things Up

• Add some onion. I’ll add some diced white or red onion to the skillet and cook them with the eggs sometimes for an extra bit of crunch and flavor.
• Swap the hummus. If hummus isn’t your thing, you could easily turn this recipe into avocado toast instead by use smashed avocado or guacamole instead.
