Avocado toast with egg is a perfect example of a delicious breakfast option! It’s popular for a reason – it’s quick, easy to customize, and can be both nutritious and satisfying. Here’s a basic rundown of the recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 slice whole grain or sourdough bread
- 1/4 ripe avocado
- 1 large egg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: Hot sauce, red pepper flakes, lemon juice, sliced tomatoes, everything bagel seasoning
Instructions:
- Toast the bread to your desired level of crispness.
- While the bread toasts, mash the avocado in a bowl. You can add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice to prevent browning.
- Cook your egg however you like it – fried, poached, scrambled, or even hard-boiled. There’s no wrong way!
- Spread the mashed avocado on the toast.
- Top with the cooked egg and season with salt and pepper.
- Get creative with your toppings! A drizzle of hot sauce, some red pepper flakes, or everything bagel seasoning can add an extra kick. Sliced tomatoes or a sprinkle of fresh herbs are nice additions too.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. A ripe avocado will yield slightly to gentle pressure.
- Choose a sturdy bread that can hold the toppings without getting soggy. Sourdough or whole-wheat bread are good options.
- If you’re not a fan of runny yolks, consider a poached egg or cook your fried egg to a firmer consistency.
Enjoy your delicious and trendy avocado toast with egg!
