One-Pan Egg and Avocado Toast

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp butter (for the pan)
• 2 eggs (whisked with a pinch of salt)
• 2 slices bread (sourdough or sandwich bread)
• 1 slice cheddar cheese
• 0.5 avocado (sliced)
• 0.25 cup fresh spinach (small handful)
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• red pepper flakes (optional garnish)

Steps

1. 1

   Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

2. 2

   Whisk two eggs with a pinch of salt and pour them into the heated skillet, tilting the pan to cover the entire surface.

3. 3

   Quickly dip two slices of bread into the raw egg mixture, then flip them over so both sides are coated in egg, and lay them side-by-side in the pan.

4. 4

   Cook for 2-3 minutes until the egg is set and the bottom is golden brown.

5. 5

   Using a large spatula, flip the entire egg and bread assembly over in one piece so the bread is now touching the pan.

6. 6

   Fold the overhanging edges of the cooked egg inward onto the bread slices.

7. 7

   Place a slice of cheese, sliced avocado, and a handful of spinach on one of the bread slices.

8. 8

   Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.

9. 9

   Fold the other slice of bread over to create a sandwich and continue to toast for 1 minute per side until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.

Notes

You can customize this by adding bacon, tomato slices, or using different types of cheese like provolone or pepper jack.
