Equipment
- Toaster
- Non-stick Skillet
- Bowl
- Fork
Ingredients
- 2 slices whole grain bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 large eggs
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Olive oil for frying
- Red pepper flakes optional, for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by toasting your two slices of whole grain bread until they are golden and crisp. Use a toaster or a pan over medium heat.
- While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it gently with a fork to your desired texture. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan carefully. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but yolks remain runny. For firmer yolks, flip and cook an additional minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado over each slice of toasted whole grain bread. Place one fried egg on top of each slice. Optionally, sprinkle red pepper flakes for a subtle heat.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of warm egg and toast with cool, creamy avocado. Perfect alone or with a fresh salad or roasted tomatoes.
Notes
- Use ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure for the best creamy texture.
- Do not overcook the eggs to keep the yolks runny and delicious.
- Season both avocado and eggs well with salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
- Toast the bread thoroughly to prevent sogginess from the toppings.
- Customize your toast with fresh herbs, spices, or different breads for variety.
