Egg and Avocado Toast on Whole Wheat Bread

Ingredients

• whole wheat bread 2 slices
• large egg 2 pieces
• avocado 1/2 medium
• olive oil 1 tsp
• black pepper to taste

Method

1. Prepare the avocado. Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out half of the avocado (about 118g) into a bowl. Mash it gently with a fork until creamy but still slightly chunky. Set aside.
   Tip: Use a ripe avocado for easier mashing and better flavor. It should yield slightly when pressed gently.
2. Toast the bread. Place the 2 slices of whole wheat bread in a toaster or toaster oven. Toast until golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes depending on your toaster.
   Tip: Toast to your preferred level of crispness, but a firmer toast helps hold the toppings well.
3. Cook the eggs. Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the 2 eggs into the skillet. Cook until the whites are fully set and the yolks reach your desired doneness (about 3-4 minutes for sunny side up). Season with black pepper to taste.
   Tip: For easier flipping, you can cook eggs sunny side up or over easy depending on preference.
4. Assemble the toast. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted whole wheat bread slices. Carefully place one cooked egg on top of each slice. Add a final sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
   Tip: Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of warm eggs and creamy avocado on crisp toast.

Pro tips

• Use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor.
