Instructions

  1. Prepare the avocado
    Scoop the avocado flesh into a medium bowl. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mash with a fork to your desired consistency - chunky or smooth.
  2. Toast the bread
    Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy. This can be done in a toaster, under a broiler, or in a toaster oven.
  3. Assemble the base
    Drizzle the toasted bread with a little olive oil. Spread the mashed avocado mixture evenly over each slice of toast.
  4. Add toppings
    Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if using. Add any optional toppings like halved cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, or microgreens.
  5. Cook eggs (optional)
    If using eggs, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into the pan and cook until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side-up. For over-easy, flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
  6. Finish and serve
    Top each avocado toast with a fried egg if using. Sprinkle with fresh herbs, a light drizzle of olive oil, and additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately while toast is still warm and crisp.
