Creamy avocado on crisp toast topped with a perfectly cooked egg. Bright lemon, a pinch of chili, and fresh herbs make this fast breakfast feel café-level and totally satisfying.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices whole grain or sourdough bread
  • 1 ripe medium avocado
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, microgreens, crumbled feta, chopped chives

Instructions

  1. Toast the bread until golden and crisp.
  2. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lemon juice, salt, and pepper until mostly smooth with some texture.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
  4. Crack in the eggs and cook to your preferred doneness, sunny side up or over easy for a runny yolk.
  5. Spread the avocado mixture evenly over the hot toast.
  6. Top each slice with an egg and finish with optional toppings like red pepper flakes, microgreens, feta, or chives.
  7. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Use day-old bread for extra crunch after toasting.
  • Cover the skillet briefly to set egg whites while keeping yolks soft.
  • Swap lemon with lime for a zestier twist.
