- 2 slices of bread sourdough, whole wheat, or your favorite
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Red pepper flakes optional, for a little heat
- Everything bagel seasoning optional, for extra flavor
- Fresh chives or parsley optional, for garnish
Toast your bread slices to your liking. You want them to be golden brown and crispy, but not burnt.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash it with a fork and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fill a saucepan with about 3 inches of water, add white vinegar, and bring to a gentle simmer.
Crack each egg into a small bowl separately.
Gently swirl the simmering water, and carefully slide one egg into the center. Repeat with the second egg.
Poach the eggs for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, or longer for a firmer yolk. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice of toast.
Place one poached egg on top of each slice of avocado toast.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, everything bagel seasoning, and garnish with fresh chives or parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
