Instructions

Cook the Bacon

Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until crispy, about 5–7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Toast the Bread

While bacon cooks, lightly butter both sides of the sourdough slices. Toast in a separate skillet or toaster until golden brown.

Prepare Avocado Mash

In a small bowl, mash avocado with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Assemble the Stack

Spread mashed avocado evenly over the toasted sourdough. Layer each slice with mixed greens, tomato slices, and crispy bacon.

Fry the Eggs

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Crack eggs into the pan and cook sunny side up until whites are set but yolks remain runny, about 3–4 minutes.

Serve

Carefully slide one egg onto each stack. Garnish with chopped chives and red pepper flakes, if desired. Serve immediately.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

To ensure the eggs are perfect every time, use a nonstick skillet and cook them over medium-low heat. This allows the whites to set completely without browning the edges or overcooking the yolk.

Varianten und Anpassungen

For a vegetarian version, use plant-based bacon instead of smoked bacon. You can also customize the flavor profile by adding a slice of your favorite cheese or a spoonful of pesto on top of the avocado.

Serviervorschläge

This stack is very filling on its own, but you can round out the meal by serving it with a side of crispy roasted potatoes or a fresh seasonal fruit salad for a heartier brunch experience.
