Bread

Avocado Topping

Eggs

Method

Prepare the Bread

  1. 1

    Toast the Bread

    Place the slices of sunflower bread in a toaster and toast them until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, you can toast them on a skillet over medium heat.

Prepare the Avocado Topping

  1. 2

    Mash the Avocado

    Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until creamy but still chunky.

  2. 3

    Add Flavor

    Mix in the lemon zest and peperoncino flakes into the mashed avocado. Stir until well combined and season with salt to taste.

Poach the Eggs

  1. 4

    Prepare the Water

    Fill a saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add a splash of vinegar to help the egg whites coagulate.

  2. 5

    Poach the Eggs

    Crack each egg into a small bowl. Carefully slide one egg at a time into the simmering water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or longer for a firmer yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Assemble the Toast

  1. 6

    Build the Toast

    Spread the avocado mixture evenly over each slice of toasted sunflower bread. Top each with a poached egg.

  2. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle additional peperoncino flakes on top, if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
