Pop star Demi Lovato has kicked off a new chapter with her upcoming cookbook, but her recent social media post has sparked mixed reactions from fans and critics alike. The Camp Rock alum, 32, shared a basic recipe tutorial on Instagram that quickly drew backlash from netizens.
In the video, Demi demonstrated how to make a simple egg and avocado toast, calling it one of her “favorite staple recipes.” She covered a slice of bread with oil, toasted it on a pan, added salt, mashed avocado, and then showed how to fry an egg to top the toast.
“It’s so easy, even I can do it,” Lovato said, adding, “I’m not a professional yet, but it’s all about progress, not perfection.”
Despite the lighthearted tone, many followers were not impressed. Critics flooded the comments, expressing disappointment over the simplicity of the recipe and questioning Lovato’s culinary expertise.
One Instagram user commented,
“Girlie is making an avocado toast with a fried egg in the announcement video… please, this is giving Brooklyn Beckham cosplaying as a chef for 2 days.”
Another follower wrote,
“She’s making avocado toast in the promo vid. Does she think we plebes can’t figure out how to put avocado on bread? I’m tired dawg.”
Others were skeptical about Lovato’s cooking experience, with one stating,
“She’s been cooking for only THREE YEARS and we’re supposed to think she wrote her own recipes?”
Demi Lovato’s Upcoming Cookbook
Despite the backlash, Demi’s cookbook One Plate At A Time is scheduled for release on March 31, 2026. The book is expected to showcase more recipes and insights from Lovato’s culinary journey, highlighting her growth in the kitchen over recent years.
Fans remain hopeful that the full collection will offer a deeper look into her cooking skills and passion beyond the simple avocado toast tutorial.
