Ingredients
Scale
Avocado Spread
- 1 ripe avocado (about 200g)
- 1 tsp chili flakes (adjust to taste)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Eggs
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp olive oil or butter for cooking eggs
Toast
- 2 slices whole grain bread
Instructions
- Prepare avocado mixture: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado until smooth but slightly chunky. Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes, mixing thoroughly to combine the flavors.
- Toast bread: Toast the two slices of whole grain bread until they are golden brown and crisp to your liking.
- Cook eggs: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or butter. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook for about 3–4 minutes until the whites are fully set but the yolks remain runny.
- Assemble toast: Spread a generous layer of the seasoned mashed avocado onto each slice of toasted bread.
- Top with eggs and garnish: Place the cooked eggs on top of the avocado toast and sprinkle additional chili flakes if you want extra heat. Serve immediately.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of chili flakes based on your preferred spice level.
- For a firmer yolk, cook the eggs longer or flip them for over-easy style.
- Adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the avocado prevents browning and adds brightness.
- Whole grain bread provides fiber, but you can substitute with gluten-free bread if needed.
- This recipe is best enjoyed fresh to maintain crisp toast and creamy avocado texture.
