Breakfast is a simple way to start the day on a good note, especially when you have something quick and satisfying to look forward to. If you’re looking for an easy morning meal, this creamy avocado toast with a fried egg takes just a few minutes to prepare — and you don’t even need a toaster.
You’ll need:
- 2 slices of bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 egg
- ½ lemon or lime
- Salt and black pepper
- Chilli flakes (optional)
- A little cooking oil or butter
Method:
- Toast the bread: Heat a dry frying pan over medium heat. Place the bread directly in the pan and cook for 1–2 minutes on each side until golden and crisp. Add a little butter or oil if preferred.
- Prepare the avocado: Mash the avocado in a bowl with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook the egg: In the same pan, add a little oil and fry the egg to your liking.
- Assemble: Spread the mashed avocado over the toasted bread and place the egg on top.
- Finish: Sprinkle with black pepper and chilli flakes.
Home tip: No frying pan? You can also toast the bread under the oven grill/broiler or in an air fryer.
