Gourmet Open-Style Avocado Toast Recipe
Simple Yet Rich Flavored Avocado Toast
Here’s an easy-to-follow recipe for open-faced avocado toast. The combination of creamy avocado, sweet strawberry jam, rich cream cheese, and a perfectly runny egg yolk makes this a healthy and delicious option for breakfast or brunch.
Key Ingredients- 2 slices of well-toasted bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 fresh eggs
- 2 Tbsp strawberry jam
- 1 Tbsp cream cheese
- 1-2 pinches of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the avocado. Wash the avocado thoroughly, slice it in half, and carefully remove the pit. Then, use a knife to slice it as thinly and evenly as possible. Thinner slices will look more appealing and be easier to eat on the toast.
Step 2
Next, prepare the eggs. Heat a non-stick pan over low heat, then crack in the two eggs. Once the egg whites start to set, sprinkle with 1-2 pinches of salt. Cook slowly, being careful not to break the yolks, until they are softly cooked (sunny-side up). The key is to have a moist, runny yolk.
Step 3
Now it’s time to toast the bread. Use a toaster or a pan to toast the two slices of bread until golden brown. Aim for a golden crispness that isn’t too hard. Perfectly toasted bread adds a delightful crunch to the toast.
Step 4
Spread 1 tablespoon of strawberry jam evenly over one side of each slice of well-toasted bread. The sweetness of the jam will balance the flavors with the avocado.
Step 5
On top of the strawberry jam, gently spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese. The creaminess and richness of the cream cheese will enhance the flavors of the jam and avocado.
Step 6
Generously arrange the thinly sliced avocado slices over the cream cheese, ensuring full coverage and an appealing presentation. Layering the avocado slices will make it look even more abundant.
Step 7
Finally, carefully place the prepared sunny-side-up eggs on top of the avocado. Breaking the yolk and mixing it with the bread and toppings is a delicious experience.
Step 8
And there you have it – a simple yet elegant open-style avocado toast! Enjoy this visually appealing and incredibly tasty avocado toast. For an extra touch, consider a sprinkle of black pepper or chili flakes to your liking.
