Ingredients

For the Toast and Eggs

• 2 slices of bread (whole grain, sourdough, or your favorite)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon (15 ml) milk or cream (optional, for extra fluffiness)
• ½ tablespoon (7 g) butter or olive oil
• ½ ripe avocado
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Red pepper flakes (optional, for a little kick)
• Lemon juice, a squeeze (optional, to brighten the avocado)

For the Fruit

• 1 cup (150 g) mixed fruit — think strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, or orange slices
• ½ teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for drizzling)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Toast the Bread

First, prepare the bread for toasting until it becomes golden and has a crispy texture. My preference is for the very slight crispness on the edges along with a tender middle. If you are using a skillet, toast it with a hint of butter—it gives a nice nutty flavor.

2. Mash the Avocado

While the bread is being toasted, take the avocado out of its skin and into a small bowl. Use a fork to mash it up to your preferred consistency, whether chunky or smooth. Then, add a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper according to your taste. It’s worth mentioning this quick seasoning moment as it keeps the avocado vibrant and tasty.

3. Whisk the Eggs

Crack the eggs into a bowl for mixing, pour in some milk if that’s your choice, and whisk together very thoroughly till no yolk and white color are left. You should be able to see some bubbles—that’s air, and air means puffy eggs.

4. Cook the Eggs

On low heat, melt butter or heat olive oil in your nonstick frying pan. Pour the egg mixture in, and after a second or two start stirring the eggs. Take a spatula and softly move the eggs from the sides to the center, thus getting soft curds. The secret is patience—low heat and slow stirring. Don’t hurry; creamy eggs are worth the wait.

5. Assemble the Toast

Take the mashed avocado and apply it liberally over your toasted slice of bread. Place your egg scramble on top. If you are a bit daring, sprinkle salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes over it—for that little spicy kick.

6. Add the Fruit

Place your assorted fruits next to the main dish on the side or in a small bowl. In case you want to be extravagant, pour very slightly honey or maple syrup as natural sweetness on top.

Serving Ideas

• Top it off: Crumbled feta, microgreens, or everything bagel seasoning can be sprinkled on top for extra taste.
• Make it deluxe: Place a slice of smoked salmon or crispy bacon alongside your eggs.
• Keep it light: For a low-carb alternative, eliminate the bread and serve the avocado and eggs over greens.

Variations and Customizations

• Vegan version: Replace eggs with scrambled tofu and use olive oil in place of butter.
• Spicy twist: Give a hit of hot sauce or drizzle of sriracha.
• Herb lovers: Blend chopped chives or cilantro into your avocado spread.
• Different fruits: Try mango, pineapple, or berries depending on what’s in season.

Storage and Make-Ahead Tips

This recipe is best eaten fresh, but if you need to prep ahead:

• Avocado: Store mashed avocado with lemon juice in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly on the surface to prevent browning (up to 1 day).
• Eggs: Scrambled eggs can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat gently in a skillet over low heat.
• Toast: Toast bread fresh when ready to eat—it loses its crunch if stored.

Pro Tips (and Mistakes to Avoid)

Here’s what I’ve learned from making this breakfast dozens of times:

• Don’t overcook the eggs. Pull them off the heat when they still look slightly soft—they’ll finish cooking from residual heat.
• Use ripe avocado. It should yield slightly when you press it. Hard avocado = frustration.
• Don’t skip seasoning. A pinch of salt and lemon juice can completely elevate the avocado flavor.
• Toast timing matters. Start the toast right before cooking the eggs so everything stays warm.
• Fresh fruit = freshness. Juicy fruit balances the richness of the avocado and eggs perfectly.
