Avocado Toast

What is Avocado Toast?

Bread that’s been lightly scorched (on purpose) topped with smashed green goodness that looks suspiciously like guacamole but insists it’s healthier.
Usually sprinkled with salt, pepper, and the tears of millennials paying $12 for it.
Sometimes topped with an egg, chili flakes, or whatever makes it feel like a personality trait.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon butter
• 2 eggs
• 2 slices multigrain bread
• 1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• sea salt to taste
• ground black pepper to taste

Step By Step

1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat.Crack eggs into the skillet side by side and cook until eggs are white on the bottom layer and firm enough to flip, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip eggs, trying not to crack the yolk, and cook until egg reaches desired doneness, 2 to 5 minutes more.
2. Meanwhile, toast bread slices to desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Mash avocado in a bowl; stir in lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and sea salt. Spread avocado mixture onto toast. Top with fried egg and season with sea salt and pepper.
