Quick and easy Avocado Toast with Egg 4 ways – fried, scrambled, boiled and poached. It’s a simple healthy protein-packed breakfast, snack or light meal! Simple to make, tasty and satisfying. If you haven’t had an egg and avocado toast breakfast yet, now is the time!

What I love about this recipe is that it’s a healthy protein-packed breakfast that’s ready in under 10 minutes. I love that it’s a well rounded meal made with some good carbs (whole wheat bread), great protein (eggs) and healthy fats (avocado!).

In this post I’m going to show you how I make my avocado toast with egg, so you never have to spend $14 buying it at a restaurant. And I’ll show my technique for fried eggs, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs and poached eggs to top your avocado toast!

Ingredients Avocado: Avocados are filled with healthy fats, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and are a great addition to a well balanced diet. Bread: You can use any bread you like for these recipes. I like to use whole grain to get some more goodness in. Seasonings: Salt and pepper added to taste. Additions: Depending how you choose to cook your eggs, you may need a little butter to add flavor or some vinegar to poach your eggs. How to make avocado toast with eggs

The first step is to toast the bread and mash the avocados. You can mash it in a bowl with salt and pepper, but I prefer to limit clean-up and just mash it right on the toasted bread. Make sure you have bread sturdy enough to handle the mashing.

Fried Eggs

The first method is fried eggs. This is the best method I’ve found for frying eggs that yields perfectly cooked egg whites with slightly undercooked egg yolks. Heat some butter (or olive oil). Break an egg onto the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Cook it uncovered until the whites set. You could cover it up once the whites set if you wanted a more firm yolk.

Scrambled Eggs

Start with butter (or olive oil) and heat it until it’s melted. Whisk the eggs in a small bowl, then pour them into the center of a nonstick pan. The egg mixture will spread, and you want to watch the edges and wait for them to set. Then gently fold the eggs from one side of the pan to the other without smashing the eggs. You’ll get soft fluffy eggs without any milk.

Boiled Eggs

Cover the eggs with water in a small saucepan. Bring the water to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat to low and cook according to the desired doneness (see the suggested times in recipe card below). Transfer them to an ice bath immediately after cooking before you peel them.

Poached Eggs

Bring a small pot of water to a boil.  Stir in vinegar and create a vortex with the boiling water. Lower the heat so the water creates a rolling boil at the bottom of the pot. When you see that rolling boil, crack one egg into a small bowl. Carefully slip the egg to the middle of the pot and cook for desired doneness.

Remove the egg with a slotted spoon to leave any liquid behind. For step-by-step tutorial, check out my guide for how to poach eggs.
