Looking for a quick and healthy breakfast that’s packed with flavor? This Healthy Avocado Toast Breakfast is just what you need! With creamy avocado, a soft-boiled egg, a hint of mayo, and a kick of chili oil, it’s the perfect combination of healthy fats and protein to fuel your day. Whether you’re rushing out the door or enjoying a slow morning, this easy-to-make toast is the way to go!
Method
Start by preparing the toast. Begin by selecting your favorite bread; I love using whole-grain or sourdough, but any type of bread works well. Place the bread into a toaster or on a pan, and toast it to your desired level of crispiness. Keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn, and remove it once it’s golden and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, make the avocado spread. Cut the ripe avocado in half and carefully remove the pit. Scoop the creamy avocado from its skin and place it into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of mayo (you can use light mayo or regular mayo depending on your preference). Mash the mixture together using a fork until smooth and creamy. If you prefer your avocado spread even creamier, feel free to add a little extra mayo to achieve the perfect texture!
Next, cook the egg. For the perfect topping, you can either fry the egg sunny side up or boil it to your liking. If you prefer a runny yolk, I recommend boiling the egg for about 5 minutes to get a soft-boiled result. Alternatively, you can scramble the eggs if you prefer. Once cooked, remove the egg from the heat and set it aside.Once your toast is ready, assemble the avocado toast. Spread the creamy avocado and mayo mixture generously onto your toasted bread. Place the cooked egg on top of the spread. To give it a little heat and extra flavor, drizzle 1 teaspoon of chili oil over the top. If you enjoy spicy food, feel free to add a bit more chili oil for an extra kick!

Directions
- Prepare the Toast: Start by toasting your favorite bread. I love using whole-grain or sourdough, but you can use any bread you like. Toast it to your desired level of crispiness.
- Make the Avocado Spread: While your toast is crisping up, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the avocado out of its skin and place it in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of mayo to the avocado and mash it together with a fork until smooth. If you want a little more creaminess, feel free to add a bit more mayo!
- Cook the Egg: For the perfect topping, boil or fry your egg. If you like a runny yolk, boil it for about 5 minutes or fry it sunny side up. I recommend using a small pot with boiling water for the perfect soft-boiled egg. If you prefer scrambled eggs, that works too!
- Assemble the Toast: Spread the creamy avocado mayo mixture generously on your toasted bread. Place the cooked egg on top of the avocado spread. Drizzle with chili oil to add a little heat and extra flavor. If you like it spicy, you can add more chili oil!
Notes
- Toasting the bread: Be careful not to burn your bread! Keep an eye on it while it’s toasting, especially if you’re using a toaster.
- Cooking the egg: If you like your eggs soft-boiled, make sure to time the cooking properly to avoid overcooking. You can also add your preferred egg style to this toast (fried, scrambled, or poached).
- Chili oil: If you’re sensitive to spice, use a little less chili oil to control the heat. You can always add more after tasting.
Serving Suggestions
- Add a side of fruit: Pair your avocado toast with fresh fruit like berries or a citrus salad for a refreshing touch.
- For more protein: Add a few slices of turkey bacon or smoked salmon to the toast for an extra protein boost.
- Smoothie: Serve with a light smoothie or green juice to make your breakfast even more wholesome and filling.
