Ingredients
-
2 slices whole-grain bread (or your choice of bread)
-
1 ripe avocado
-
2 large eggs
-
1 tbsp olive oil or butter (for frying the eggs)
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, lemon juice, cherry tomatoes, microgreens, or fresh herbs
Instructions
-
Toast the Bread:
-
Toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown and crispy.
-
-
Prepare the Avocado:
-
While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl.
-
Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, then season with salt and pepper to taste. You can add a squeeze of lemon juice for extra freshness, if desired.
-
-
Cook the Eggs:
-
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or butter.
-
Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook them to your preferred doneness. For sunny-side-up, cook for 2-3 minutes, or for over-easy, flip after 2 minutes and cook for an additional minute.
-
Season with salt and pepper.
-
-
Assemble the Toast:
-
Spread the mashed avocado generously on the toasted bread slices.
-
Top each slice with a cooked egg.
-
-
Optional Toppings:
-
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat, a few cherry tomato slices for freshness, or sprinkle with fresh herbs or microgreens for added flavor and color.
-
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
-
For a creamier avocado spread, you can add a little Greek yogurt or a dash of olive oil when mashing the avocado.
-
If you prefer a different type of egg, scrambled eggs or poached eggs also work wonderfully with avocado toast.
- For a quick meal, you can prepare the avocado toast and eggs in a meal prep setting, storing the avocado separately to prevent browning.
