Classic Avocado Toast
Another Saturday morning has rolled around and I’m so looking forward to it! It’s a day to relax, refresh, get things done and put a little extra effort into breakfast then usual. During the week my breakfasts are a little different; they’re more geared towards being packable and able to eat it at work. On the weekends I like to switch it up with something a little different; usually incorporating eggs in some way. This avocado toast is a fun, delicious and nutritious way to have eggs on a Saturday morning.
When I have eggs, I am always changing up the way that I prepare them because I do get sick of them quite fast. Thankfully, there are so many different ways to have eggs! They are so incredibly nutrient-dense, specifically organic, free-range, so I want to make sure I’m including them in my diet on a regular basis. When I’m having eggs with toast I usually like them poached. With the avocado toast I have sliced the avocado but you can also mash it with the spices, spread it over the toast and have it that way. I love using homemade sourdough for this recipe but any type of bread will work just fine.
Classic Avocado Toast
Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 clove fresh garlic
- 1 tsp chili flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1-2 slices of sourdough bread
- 1 or 2 free-run eggs
- 2 tbsp white vinegar
- Everything bagel seasoning
Instructions
- Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Spoon out the entire halves and slice lengthwise into thin slices.
- Toast and butter your sourdough. Rub a cut clove of garlic all over the toast and top with the sliced avocado, fanning it out as you lay it on the bread.
- Sprinkle chilli flakes, salt and pepper on top of the avocado toast.
- Next, poach your eggs. Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add 2 tbsp of white vinegar.
- Crack one egg into a small bowl. Whisk the boiling water in a swirling motion and gently drop your egg into the center of the swirl. Turn the boil down to a simmer and let cook for 4 minutes or until your desired doneness.
- Remove your egg with a slotted spoon onto a paper towel and season with salt and pepper.
- Add your egg onto your avocado toast and sprinkle all over with Everything Bagel seasoning.
- Breakfast is served!
