The full ingredients list and instructions are found in the printable recipe card at the end of this post. I highly recommend reading the blog post all the way through so that you don’t miss any tips or substitution suggestions, to ensure that you have all the ingredients and equipment required and understand the steps and timings involved.
This Creamy Avocado Chickpea Toast is a tasty, healthy, nourishing meal perfect for breakfast, lunch, or even a light dinner.
The addition of the chickpeas adds a beautiful creamy texture while bumping up the fiber and protein of this easy favorite.
We finished off the toast with a dollop of Greek yogurt, but it’s so versatile – you can add whatever toppings you like! A fried or poached egg would go beautifully on top, or even some grilled tomatoes or mushrooms.
So go ahead and give this recipe a try – I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Recipes on The Purple Pumpkin Blog use both cup measurements and/or weighted measurements. American cups and kitchen food scales are handy pieces of equipment to have in your kitchen as it means you’ll be able to make all of the different recipes on my blog. I try to give American, imperial, and metric measurements in my recipes. Please note, you can mix cup measurements with weighted measurements, but never mix imperial (pounds, ounces, pints, etc.,) with metric (kilograms, grams, litres, etc.,).
