2 slices sourdough bread (or your favorite hearty bread)
1 ripe avocado 1/2 lemon, juiced (fresh is best!) 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste) 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste) 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder 2 large eggs 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (for frying the eggs) 1 tablespoon honey 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes (or more/less to your spice preference!) 1/2 teaspoon water (optional, to thin the honey for easier drizzling) For Garnish (Optional but lovely!): Fresh herbs (like chopped parsley, cilantro, or chives) Extra pinch of chili flakes

Toast Your Base: Pop your sourdough slices (or bread of choice) into the toaster or under a broiler until they're perfectly golden brown and wonderfully crisp. Prep the Avocado Gold: While the bread is toasting, halve and pit your ripe avocado. Scoop the creamy flesh into a medium bowl. Add the fresh lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and turmeric. Gently mash everything together with a fork until it's mostly smooth but still has a few delightful chunky bits. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed! Mix the Sweet & Spicy Drizzle: In a small bowl, combine the honey and red chili flakes. If your honey is very thick, stir in the 1/2 teaspoon of water to make it a bit more drizzle-friendly. Set aside. Fry the Sunrise Eggs: Heat the olive oil or butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully crack in the eggs. Cook them to your preference – sunny side up with set whites and perfectly runny yolks is highly recommended for that "golden sunrise" effect and luscious texture! Season with a tiny pinch of salt and pepper while they cook, if you like. Assemble Your Masterpiece: Once the toast is ready, spread a generous layer of the spiced avocado mash evenly over each slice. Crown with an Egg: Gently place a beautifully fried egg on top of the avocado on each slice of toast. Drizzle with Deliciousness: Generously drizzle that irresistible honey-chili mixture all over the eggs and avocado. Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with your choice of fresh herbs and an extra pinch of chili flakes if you're feeling bold. Serve immediately and prepare to be utterly delighted!

Bread Choice Matters: While sourdough is fantastic for its tangy flavor and sturdy texture, feel free to use your favorite! Multigrain, whole wheat, rye, or even a good gluten-free loaf will work wonderfully. Just make sure it’s hearty enough to hold up all those toppings. Avocado Ripeness is Key: Look for an avocado that yields gently to pressure. It should be soft enough to mash easily but not overly mushy or brown. Spice it Your Way: Not a fan of too much heat? Reduce the chili flakes in the honey drizzle, or omit them entirely and just enjoy a lovely honey glaze. Love it spicy? Add a few more flakes! Egg Perfection: For truly perfect sunny-side-up eggs, cook them low and slow with a lid on the skillet for the last minute or so to help the whites set without overcooking the yolk. Vegan Version? Absolutely! To make this stunning breakfast vegan, simply skip the eggs, or replace them with your favorite plant-based egg substitute like a tofu scramble or a store-bought vegan fried egg. Ensure your honey is vegan-certified or use maple syrup or agave for the drizzle. Prep Ahead Tips: While avocado is always best fresh (thanks, oxidation!), you can make the spiced avocado mash an hour or two ahead. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the mash to prevent browning and store it in the fridge. The honey-chili drizzle can be made days in advance and stored at room temperature.
Add Extra Protein: Tuck a slice of smoked salmon under the egg, or serve with a side of crispy bacon or turkey bacon. Bring in More Greens: Serve alongside a small handful of fresh arugula or spinach for an extra peppery bite. Make it a Full Brunch Spread: Pair it with a fresh fruit salad and a delicious coffee or mimosa!
