Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 1 large, ripe avocado
- 1 tbsp everything bagel seasoning
- 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp white vinegar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp chopped fresh dill
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Place 2 slices sourdough bread in the skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown, then set aside.
- Step 2: Cut 1 large ripe avocado in half, remove pit, and scoop flesh into a bowl. Add 1 tbsp everything bagel seasoning and 1/4 tsp salt, then mash with a fork until smooth but still slightly textured.
- Step 3: Bring a saucepan of 2 inches of water to a gentle simmer, add 1 tbsp white vinegar, and create a vortex by stirring. Crack 2 large eggs into a small bowl, then slide each into the simmering water. Cook for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are still runny, then lift out with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Step 4: Spread 1/2 of the mashed avocado mixture onto each toasted bread slice. Top with 1 poached egg per slice, sprinkle with 1 tsp chopped fresh dill, and serve immediately.
