This delicious hash brown avocado toast brings together crispy hash browns, creamy avocado, and roasted Brussels sprouts and broccoli for a vibrant and satisfying breakfast. It combines textures and fresh flavors, making your morning meal exciting and nourishing.
This has become my favorite weekend breakfast when I want something hearty but still fresh. The first time I served it, the crispy hash browns and tender roasted veggies won over everyone at the table.
Ingredients
- Two cups frozen hash browns: the base of the dish frozen ensures convenience and a crispy texture
- One medium ripe avocado: brings creaminess and richness choose avocados that yield slightly when pressed
- One cup Brussels sprouts: roasting enhances their natural sweetness and adds a nice char
- One cup broccoli: adds color, nutrition, and a pleasing crunch after roasting
- One tablespoon everything bagel seasoning: adds a savory, herby kick homemade versions have the best flavor
- Three tablespoons vegan parmesan cheese: brings cheesy depth nutritional yeast works well as a substitute
- A handful of microgreens: for a fresh, peppery garnish radish or sunflower sprouts work beautifully
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cook Hash Browns:
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the hash brown patties for 10 to 12 minutes until they develop a golden brown crust and crisp through. Flip halfway for even cooking. This gives the toast base a wonderful crunchy foundation.
- Roast Vegetables:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss Brussels sprouts and broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred. Roasting brings sweetness and a depth of flavor that pairs perfectly with the creamy avocado.
- Assemble Toast:
- Spread mashed avocado evenly over each crispy hash brown patty. Then layer on the roasted Brussels sprouts and broccoli for a colorful and nutritious topping that adds both texture and flavor.
- Season and Garnish:
- Sprinkle the everything bagel seasoning and vegan parmesan cheese generously over each assembled toast. Finally, top with a handful of fresh microgreens to add a peppery bite and fresh brightness.

My favorite part is definitely the crispy golden hash browns that hold everything together. We made this during a lazy Sunday brunch once and ended up making it a regular in our recipe rotation because it is as delicious as it is colorful.
Storage Tips
Store leftover hash browns and roasted vegetables separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat hash browns in a skillet to maintain crispness. The assembled toast is best enjoyed fresh but can be prepped ahead by roasting veggies and cooking hash browns in advance.
Ingredient Substitutions
You can swap frozen hash browns with homemade shredded potatoes if you prefer a fresher option Try using kale or asparagus instead of Brussels sprouts and broccoli for different veggie notes Regular Parmesan works if you are not vegan, or sprinkle nutritional yeast for a cheesy, dairy-free flavor
