Simple, Creamy Mushroom Toast – ready in 15 minutes. Healthy treat, full of good fats. You can use gluten-free bread or paleo bread underneath, and furthermore it’s a vegan recipe of course. I’ve just updated this popular recipe with mushrooms from this season. I’ve got so much great feedback on this creamy garlic mushroom toast the last years.. But it’s also one of the absolute best vegan toast appetizers. If you ask me.
I’ve shown you this good and old recipe before on Instagram, but wanted to update this a bit. Made with creamy spread on top of the toast bread. Very similar to this favorite avocado creme here.
Lately, I made this recipe 3 times last week. It’s such a time savior because it only takes 10 minutes to make and then it’s actually a pretty healthy treat. Delicious for breakfast too (just omit garlic and onions), lunch, an appetizer or maybe a side dish.

Mushroom Toast with Avocado Spread.
Mushroom Toast – A simple 10 minute plant based recipe. The creamiest toasts with mushrooms, garlic and avocado dip. So creamy, easy and healthy. Get my full recipe here.
Ingredients
- Avocado spread:
- 1 Avocado, ripe
- 1 clove of Garlic
- One handful of fresh Basil (or spinach)
- Squeezes of 1/2 a Lemon
- 2-3 tablespoon of Olive Oil
- Salt and pepper
- Other ingredients:
- One handful seasonal Mushrooms
- 2 x Toast bread
- 2-3 tablespoon of Pine Nuts (can be omitted or replaced with other nuts)
Instructions
Start by making the avocado spread. In a small food processor or blender, mix the ripe avocado, garlic, basil leaves, lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper. Mix until you have a smooth texture. Add more sourness, salt or pepper if needed.
Wash and chop the mushrooms. Drizzle a pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cook the mushrooms over a medium heat about 5 minutes until soft, but still tender.
Transfer the mushrooms on a plate. Add the pine nuts directly on the pan for a few seconds on each side until golden.
Toast your bread, add a thick layer of creamy avocado spread on top. Finally spoon with mushrooms on top, along with pine nuts, salt and pepper.
As always, just add the ingredients you already have in your kitchen. For example, the basil leaves can easily be replaced with parsley or spinach. And pine nuts can be omitted, or you can sprinkle with pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds. Top with your favorites herbs or spices before servering (chili flakes would also work perfect here).
Don’t forget the avocado spread.
I always make these creamy mushroom toasts with a lot of good avocado dip. Go find my old good avocado recipe here. Only made with avocado, olive oil, lemon, onions, garlic, salt and pepper – and sometimes spinach or parsley or whatever I have. It tastes SO good.
Furthermore, it’s perfect for toast spread. But it’s also a perfect dip to serve along fries. Sometimes I also use the creme in burgers, this delicious winter bowl with rice and spinach or dipping for green soft falafels.
The power of mushrooms.
Obsessed with mushrooms. Yes I am. And I use them in so many dishes and recipes. I just love their texture and their ability to absorb so many flavors, which is why they work so well in almost all combinations. Perfect for soups, garlic recipes, stews or other good cooking recipes. Really simple to make, whether it’s for snack, lunch or dinner. It’s so easy to make – stir all the ingredients together, warm your toast and when ready. Add the creamy avocado dip, spoon your mushrooms on top of your toast and serve with lemon and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
One of the best snacks for breakfast, lunch, dinner or side dish. I really hope you will love this recipe as much as I do! PS, was inspired to make this recipe because of this garlic and thyme mushroom toast here from Deliciously Ella.
