Ingredients
Scale
Avocado Toast Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado (creamy texture that brings richness to your toast)
- 2 slices bread (your choice: sourdough or whole grain, toasted to perfection)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (freshens up the avocado)
- Salt (to taste)
- Pepper (to taste)
Chili Butter Spread
- 2 tablespoons butter (softened to enhance the chili flavor)
- 1 tablespoon chili oil (adds a spicy kick; adjust to taste for heat)
Eggs
- 2 large eggs (poached or fried for adding protein and silkiness)
Instructions
- Toast the Bread: Toast your choice of bread until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. This forms the crunchy base for your avocado toast.
- Prepare Chili Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter and chili oil. Stir until well blended to create a spicy, flavorful spread.
- Mash the Avocado: Halve your ripe avocado and scoop out the flesh. Mash it with a fork, then squeeze in lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to brighten and balance flavors.
- Cook the Eggs: Cook the eggs to your liking—either poached or fried—about 4-5 minutes until done but still silky and tender.
- Spread Chili Butter on Toast: Generously slather the spicy chili butter over each warm slice of toast to infuse heat and richness.
- Add Mashed Avocado: Spoon the mashed avocado evenly on top of the buttered toast. Optionally drizzle extra chili oil for an added spicy kick.
- Top with Eggs: Place the cooked eggs on top of the avocado toast. Season again with salt and pepper to taste for a perfectly savory finish.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of chili oil to control the heat level according to your preference.
- Use freshly toasted bread for the best crunch and texture contrast with creamy avocado and eggs.
- For added freshness, you can sprinkle chopped cilantro or chives on top.
- Try using whole grain bread for a more fiber-rich option.
- If you prefer, swap fried eggs for scrambled or soft-boiled eggs.
