Ingredients

  • ½ whole avocado, ripe
  • 1 slice bread, crusty or sourdough
  • 1 whole egg, large
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Toast the bread in a skillet over medium-high heat until golden and crispy on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.

    Remove toast to a plate. Add 0.5 tbsp butter to the skillet, crack the egg into it, and cook until whites set but yolks jiggle.

  3. 3

    Scoop avocado onto a small plate and mash with a fork until chunky-creamy, then season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Spread remaining butter on toast, top with mashed avocado, then slide the fried egg on top.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Serve immediately.
