Flavorful & Simple Weekend Brunch: Avocado Egg Sandwich
A Recipe for a Simple and Refreshing Avocado Egg Sandwich for Weekend Mornings
On a weekend morning, I made a simple yet delightful sandwich to enjoy with a cool Americano. This Avocado Egg Sandwich is perfect for a relaxed start to your day, combining creamy avocado, fluffy scrambled eggs, and a hint of maple syrup for a touch of sweetness. It’s an easy recipe that brings a touch of luxury to your weekend breakfast, perfect for sharing with loved ones or enjoying as a personal treat.
Ingredients- 4 slices of bread (whole wheat or rye bread can also be used)
- 1 ripe avocado (should yield slightly to gentle pressure)
- 2 fresh eggs
- 2 slices of cheese (cheddar or your favorite sliceable cheese)
- A drizzle of maple syrup (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the bread for your sandwich. Lightly toast the bread slices in a dry frying pan over medium-low heat until they are golden brown on both sides. A slightly crispy texture enhances the sandwich experience.
Step 2
Next, we’ll make delicious scrambled eggs. Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk them thoroughly with a fork, and then pour into a lightly greased frying pan heated over medium-low heat. Scramble the eggs until they are just set and still moist – this is key for a tender texture.
Step 3
Now, let’s prepare the avocado. Carefully slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and then scoop out the flesh from the skin using a spoon. Ensure the avocado is ripe for the best creamy texture.
Step 4
Place the scooped avocado flesh into a small bowl. Mash it gently with a fork or a potato masher. It’s nice to leave some small chunks for texture, rather than making it completely smooth.
Step 5
Take one side of the toasted bread and spread a thin layer of maple syrup over it. Be mindful not to use too much, as it can make the sandwich overly sweet. A light drizzle adds a pleasant hint of sweetness.
Step 6
On top of the maple syrup-coated bread slice, place one slice of cheese. The cheese will melt slightly from the warmth of the bread and eggs, helping to bind the ingredients together.
Step 7
Evenly spread the freshly made scrambled eggs over the cheese. Try to distribute them uniformly so you get egg in every bite.
Step 8
Generously pile the mashed avocado on top of the scrambled eggs. The more avocado you add, the richer and creamier the sandwich will be – it’s truly the star! Feel free to add a pinch of salt and pepper if you like.
Step 9
Place the remaining slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich, then cut it in half diagonally for easy eating. Enjoy your delicious Avocado Egg Sandwich – it’s a perfect way to elevate your weekend morning!
