Poached Eggs on Whole Grain Avocado Toast
Making a poached egg in the air fryer cuts down the cook time and eliminates the fuss of boiling water, adding vinegar, and then fishing the egg out of water without breaking the yolk. Avocado toast topped with a simple, mess-free air fryer poached egg is a delightful, protein-packed breakfast that is full of umami. If you like a little spice, top with a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 320°F. Lightly coat the inside of four small oven-safe ramekins with olive oil cooking spray.
- Crack one egg into each ramekin, and season with salt and black pepper.
- Place the ramekins into the air fryer basket. Close and set the timer to 7 minutes.
- While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread in a toaster.
- Slice the avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if desired. Using a fork, smash the avocado lightly.
- Spread a quarter of the smashed avocado evenly over each slice of toast.
- Remove the eggs from the air fryer, and gently spoon one onto each slice of avocado toast before serving.
