Avocado and Egg Toast on Whole Wheat Bread Recipe
Ingredients (Serves 2)
- 2 slices of whole wheat bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
- A pinch of chilli flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
- A squeeze of lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh coriander or parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Method
- Toast the bread:
Toast the slices of whole wheat bread until they’re golden and crispy. You can use a toaster or simply toast them in a pan with a little butter or olive oil for extra flavour. - Prepare the avocado:
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until it’s smooth but still slightly chunky. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a sprinkle of chilli flakes (if using). Mix well. - Cook the eggs:
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little olive oil or butter. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook them to your liking – sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. - Assemble the toast:
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices. Top each slice with a cooked egg. - Garnish and serve:
Sprinkle with fresh coriander or parsley if you like, and add an extra pinch of chilli flakes or black pepper for a bit of kick. Serve immediately and enjoy!
