- Cook Time: 13 minutes
- Total Time: 13 minutes
- Diet: Vegetarian
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 thick slice of sourdough or whole-grain bread
- 1/2 ripe avocado
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: Red pepper flakes or “Everything Bagel” seasoning
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
- In a small bowl, scoop out the flesh of half an avocado. Add the lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Use a fork to mash the avocado until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Lightly spray both sides of your bread slice with a tiny bit of olive oil spray. Place the bread in the air fryer basket and air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 2 to 3 minutes just to give it a head start on crisping up.
- Spread the avocado mash evenly over the pre-toasted bread. Use the back of a spoon to create a small “well” or indentation in the center of the avocado.
- Carefully crack the egg into the indentation you made in the avocado. If you are worried about the egg running, you can crack it into a small ramekin first and then gently pour it onto the toast. Season the top of the egg with an extra pinch of salt and pepper.
- Place the assembled toast back into the air fryer basket. Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 5 to 7 minutes. At the 5-minute mark, check the egg. Cook longer if you prefer a set yolk, or take it out early if you like a runny yolk.
