Description

Creamy avocado breakfast sandwich brings morning magic to your plate with layers of deliciousness. Rich flavors and hearty ingredients combine for a satisfying start that energizes you through the day.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 2 slices Italian bread

Cheese:

  • 1 ounce (28 grams) Swiss cheese, sliced
  • 1 ounce (28 grams) Cheddar cheese, sliced

Seasonings and Cooking Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon (15 grams) butter, softened
  • Salt to taste
  • Ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Warm a skillet with olive oil over medium temperature, carefully cracking eggs directly into the pan and cooking them to preferred consistency while sprinkling with seasoning.
  2. Generously coat one surface of each bread slice with creamy butter, ensuring complete coverage.
  3. Construct the sandwich by strategically layering Swiss and Cheddar cheese slices, creating a foundation for the perfectly cooked eggs and creamy avocado segments.
  4. Position the assembled sandwich in the preheated skillet, allowing the buttered exterior to crisp and transform into a golden-brown texture while simultaneously melting the cheese.
  5. Gently press the sandwich with a spatula to enhance even browning and ensure optimal cheese melting, rotating once to achieve uniform color and crispness on both exterior surfaces.
  6. Remove from heat when bread reaches a delectable caramel-like hue and cheese appears smoothly integrated, transferring to a cutting board for precise slicing.
  7. Slice diagonally to showcase the luscious interior layers and serve immediately while ingredients remain warm and texturally appealing.

Notes

  • Choose ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure for the best creamy texture and flavor in your sandwich.
  • Experiment with different cheese combinations like Gruyère or pepper jack to add unique flavor profiles to the classic breakfast sandwich.
  • Toast the bread beforehand for extra crispiness if you prefer a crunchier exterior on your grilled sandwich.
  • For a lighter version, swap butter with olive oil spray and use egg whites instead of whole eggs to reduce calories while maintaining delicious taste.
