Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large or 2 small everything bagels (preferably day old)
- 1 medium ripe avocado
- 2 large eggs per serving
- 1–2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Flaky sea salt (such as Maldon), to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Pinch of smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- Red pepper flakes (optional)
- Optional add-ons: fresh herbs (chopped chives or parsley), everything bagel seasoning, cherry tomatoes (halved)
Instructions
- Slice the everything bagel in half (or quarters if small). Lightly brush or spray each piece with olive oil.
- Place bagel pieces under a broiler or in a toaster oven for about 3-5 minutes until golden and crispy around the edges. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Scoop out the ripe avocado into a bowl. Add fresh lemon juice, a pinch of salt, smoked paprika, and freshly ground black pepper. Mash with a fork until creamy but slightly chunky. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Crack the eggs gently into the pan.
- Cook eggs slowly for about 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain soft and jammy. Cover the pan with a lid to help set the whites without overcooking the yolk. Avoid flipping the eggs.
- Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each crispy bagel piece.
- Carefully place a jammy egg on top of each avocado-covered bagel slice.
- Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and red pepper flakes if desired. Add fresh herbs or everything bagel seasoning for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately while the bagel is still crunchy and the egg yolk is runny.
Notes
Use day-old everything bagels for best crispiness. Cook eggs on low heat with a lid to achieve perfect jammy yolks. Add lemon juice to mashed avocado to prevent browning. For vegan version, substitute eggs with smoked tofu or chickpea scramble. Gluten-free option available using gluten-free bagels or bread.
