Avocado Toast Base

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Avocado Mixture

  1. 1

    Scoop and Mash Avocados

    Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocados until smooth but still a bit chunky.

  2. 2

    Add Seasonings

    Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the mashed avocados. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

Toast the Bread

  1. 3

    Toast the Bread

    Toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until they are golden brown and crispy.

Poach the Eggs

  1. 4

    Boil Water

    In a medium saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer. You can add a splash of vinegar to help the eggs hold their shape.

  2. 5

    Poach the Eggs

    Crack one egg into a small bowl. Create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water and carefully slide the egg into the center. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for a soft yolk, then remove with a slotted spoon. Repeat for the second egg.

Assemble the Toast

  1. 6

    Spread Avocado Mixture

    Spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture on each slice of toasted bread.

  2. 7

    Top with Poached Egg

    Carefully place a poached egg on top of each slice of avocado toast.

  3. 8

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle chili flakes over the eggs and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
