Description
A quick, healthy, and satisfying breakfast made with crispy toast, creamy mashed avocado, and perfectly fried eggs. Ideal for beginner cooks.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of hearty bread (sourdough or whole grain)
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Fresh lemon juice
- Optional: red pepper flakes, cherry tomatoes, microgreens
Instructions
- Toast the bread slices in a toaster, toaster oven, or skillet until golden and crisp.
- Meanwhile, halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork and mix in salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
- Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set and yolks are still runny, about 2–3 minutes. Cover briefly if you prefer a firmer yolk.
- Spread the mashed avocado onto the warm toast, then gently top each slice with a fried egg. Add more seasoning and any desired toppings like chili flakes or tomatoes.
- Serve immediately while the eggs are warm and the yolk is still soft.
Notes
- Use slightly underripe avocados if storing mash in advance to prevent browning.
- If the toast is browning too quickly, reduce the heat or use thicker bread slices.
- Use a well-oiled pan if you don’t have non-stick cookware.
- Customize toppings based on personal preference or dietary needs.
