Variations

• Vegetarian Version: Omit the bacon and add sautéed mushrooms or grilled halloumi for a meat-free option.

• Different Eggs: Try poached or scrambled eggs if preferred.

• Cheesy Upgrade: Sprinkle with crumbled feta or shredded cheddar before serving.

• Herb Finish: Add chopped chives, parsley, or fresh basil for a fresh finish.

• Low-Carb Option: Use roasted sweet potato slices in place of toast for a grain-free variation.

Storage/Reheating

This dish is best enjoyed immediately after preparation.
However, you can prepare components in advance:

• Cook the bacon ahead and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

• Mash the avocado just before serving to prevent browning.

• Toast and eggs should be made fresh for optimal texture.

Avoid freezing, as the toast and avocado do not retain quality after thawing.

FAQs

Can I make this ahead of time?

It’s best enjoyed fresh, but bacon can be cooked ahead and avocados mashed just before assembling.

What kind of bread works best?

Artisan bread such as sourdough, whole grain, or multigrain works well due to its sturdy texture.

How do I make hot honey?

Mix honey with a small amount of chili flakes or hot sauce and warm it slightly until combined.

Can I use turkey bacon?

Yes, turkey bacon is a lighter alternative and cooks similarly to regular bacon.

What eggs are best for this recipe?

Fried eggs with a runny yolk are traditional, but poached or scrambled eggs also work well.

Is this recipe spicy?

Only slightly, due to the hot honey and optional chili flakes, which can be adjusted to taste.

Can I use store-bought guacamole?

Yes, but freshly mashed avocado offers a cleaner flavor and better texture.

How do I keep avocado from browning?

Add a little lemon juice to the mashed avocado to slow oxidation if prepping slightly in advance.

What cheese pairs well with this?

Crumbled goat cheese, feta, or sharp cheddar adds great contrast.

Can I use regular honey instead of hot honey?

Yes, and you can add chili flakes separately if you still want a hint of spice.
