Scale
- 2 slices of whole-grain bread
- 1 ripe avocado

Instructions
- Begin by boiling water in a pot. Once it reaches a gentle simmer, gently lower the eggs in.
- Cook the eggs for about 6-7 minutes for soft-boiled perfection. Then, transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- While the eggs are cooling, toast your slices of bread until they are golden brown.
- Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork and add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Spread the mashed avocado generously on the toasted bread.
- Peel the soft-boiled eggs and cut them in half. Place them on top of the avocado toast.
- Finish with any optional toppings you like and serve immediately!
Notes
Using perfectly ripe avocados is key to a creamy texture. Keep an eye on the eggs during the boiling process to avoid overcooking.
