How to Make Poached Egg Avocado Surprise

  1. Toast your sourdough bread to your desired level of crispness.
  2. While the bread is toasting, prepare the avocado. Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and mash the flesh with a fork. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Fill a small saucepan with about 3 inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of white vinegar.
  4. Crack each egg individually into a small bowl. Gently slide each egg into the simmering water.
  5. Poach for 3-4 minutes for runny yolks, or longer for firmer yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  6. Spread the mashed avocado evenly onto the toasted sourdough.
  7. Top each slice of toast with a poached egg.
  8. Garnish with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, everything bagel seasoning, or a drizzle of hot sauce (optional).
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Poached Egg Avocado Surprise!
