An irresistibly creamy avocado toast topped with soft, yolky poached eggs—a perfect breakfast to fuel your day!
Ingredients:
• 2 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread, toasted
• 1 ripe avocado
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 1/2 tsp lemon juice (optional, to prevent browning)
• 2 large eggs
• Sesame seeds or chili flakes (for garnish, optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Avocado: Scoop the avocado into a small bowl and mash it with a fork until creamy but slightly chunky. Add salt, black pepper, and a bit of lemon juice if desired. Set aside.
Poach the Eggs: Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl. Stir the water to create a slight whirlpool, then gently slide one egg into the center. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolk is still soft. Remove with a slotted spoon and repeat with the second egg.
Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado generously over each slice of toasted bread. Carefully place a poached egg on top of each avocado toast.
Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with sesame seeds or chili flakes if desired. Season with a bit more salt and pepper, and enjoy this simple, satisfying treat!
