Cloud Toast with Avocado Honey (Printable)

Fluffy baked egg whites on toasted sourdough, garnished with avocado roses, honey, and microgreens.

# What You'll Need:

→ Eggs

01 - 4 large eggs, separated

→ Bread

02 - 2 thick slices sourdough bread

→ Toppings

03 - 1 ripe avocado
04 - 2 teaspoons honey
05 - Small handful microgreens
06 - Flaky sea salt, to taste
07 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Optional

08 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice (to prevent avocado browning)
09 - Olive oil, for brushing bread

# How to make it:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Lightly toast sourdough slices or brush with olive oil and bake for 3 to 4 minutes until golden. Set aside.
03 - Separate the egg whites into a large clean bowl and place each yolk in individual small bowls.
04 - Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form.
05 - Divide beaten egg whites into two mounds on prepared sheet, creating a small well in the center of each.
06 - Bake egg white mounds for 3 minutes.
07 - Gently place one yolk into each well. Return to oven and bake another 3 to 4 minutes until whites are golden and yolks are just set.
08 - Halve and peel the avocado. Thinly slice each half, fan out slices, and roll gently into rose shapes. Optionally brush with lemon juice to prevent browning.
09 - Place each egg cloud atop a slice of toast, top with avocado rose, drizzle honey, add microgreens, and season with flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.

# Recipe Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It looks like you spent hours in the kitchen but actually takes less time than a trip to your favorite café.
  • The textural contrast—crispy toast, pillowy clouds, creamy avocado, peppery greens—makes every bite interesting.
  • You can make it for one person or impress a table full of friends with something genuinely elegant.
02 -
  • Egg white success hinges on cleanliness—a single grain of yolk or a smudge of grease in your bowl will prevent stiff peaks, so wash everything twice if you're paranoid.
  • Don't walk away while the clouds bake; those 3–4 minutes fly by, and you want to catch them the moment they're set but still tender inside.
03 -
  • Room-temperature egg whites whip faster and higher than cold ones, so let them sit out for 15 minutes before you start.
  • If your avocado is slightly underripe, embrace it—the firmness makes the roses easier to shape, and they won't collapse.
