Ingredients
Scale
Chili Butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, softened
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Eggs and Toast
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices sourdough or whole grain bread
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as parsley, cilantro, or chives), chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Chili Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened salted butter with olive oil, minced garlic, chili flakes, and paprika. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the butter is smooth. Set aside.
- Toast the Bread: Toast the sourdough or whole grain bread slices until they are golden and crisp, either in a toaster or on a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the Eggs: In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the eggs to your preference (fried, scrambled, or poached). Season with salt and pepper.
- Prepare the Avocado: Halve, pit, and scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl. Mash lightly with a fork, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous layer of the chili butter on each slice of toasted bread. Then spread a layer of mashed avocado on top of the chili butter.
- Add Cheese and Eggs: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the avocado layer. Immediately place the cooked eggs on top so the cheese slightly melts from the egg’s warmth.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh chopped herbs over each toast. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of chili flakes in the chili butter to control the spice level.
- Use ripe avocado for the creamiest texture.
- Sourdough bread offers a tangy flavor that pairs well, but whole grain is a healthier alternative.
- You can substitute cheddar with other melting cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack.
- For a dairy-free version, use vegan butter and omit the cheese.
