Avocado Bagel Fried Egg Sandwich (Print-Friendly Version)

A toasted bagel, ripe avocado, and melted cheese embrace a savory fried egg for a balanced, satisfying breakfast.

# What You'll Need:

→ Main Components

01 - 2 bagels, any preferred variety (such as everything, onion, whole wheat, or plain)
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 2 slices Swiss cheese or other preferred cheese (cheddar, gouda, mozzarella, provolone, or pepper jack)
04 - 1 ripe avocado

→ Seasoning

05 - Everything bagel seasoning, to taste
06 - Salt, to taste
07 - Black pepper, to taste
08 - Oil or butter, for frying

# How to Make It:

01 - Slice the bagels in half and toast them until golden and crisp to your preference, using a toaster or a heated pan.
02 - Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a small amount of oil or butter. Crack the eggs into the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until the whites are set and yolks reach your desired firmness.
03 - Place a slice of cheese atop each egg during the final minute of cooking. Take off the heat and allow the cheese to melt from the retained warmth. Optionally, cover the pan to hasten melting.
04 - Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and extract the flesh. Mash it with a fork until smooth or leave it slightly chunky, based on preference.
05 - Generously spread the mashed avocado on the cut sides of both bagel halves. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning. Layer the fried eggs with melted cheese atop the avocado, then close with the top bagel half, pressing gently to secure.
06 - Enjoy immediately while warm, savouring the contrasting textures of crisp bagel, creamy avocado, and oozing cheese.

# Additional Tips:

01 - For a gluten-free version, substitute regular bagels with gluten-free bagels of your choice.
02 - Eggs can be scrambled or poached instead of fried to adjust the texture.
03 - Experiment with different cheeses to tailor the flavour and meltability to your liking.
04 - Create a homemade everything bagel seasoning using sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt.
