Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Soft-scramble the eggs: whisk eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add eggs and gently stir until soft curds form; remove from heat when slightly underdone (carryover will finish).
- 2
Prepare avocado: mash avocado in a small bowl with lemon juice and a pinch of salt until slightly chunky.
- 3
Make berry yogurt drizzle: in a small bowl, stir the Greek yogurt with the berries and cinnamon; lightly mash a few berries to release juice but keep some whole for texture.
- 4
Assemble: spoon mashed avocado into a bowl, top with soft-scrambled eggs, then drizzle berry yogurt over one side. Sprinkle chopped almonds on top and grind fresh black pepper.
- 5
Serve immediately.
