Begin by halving and pitting the avocado. Scoop the flesh from one half into a bowl. Add lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper to the avocado, then mash until smooth. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, crack the egg into the skillet.
Season the egg with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side-up, or flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes for over-easy, depending on your texture preference.
While the egg is cooking, toast the slice of almond flour bread in a toaster or on a skillet over medium heat until golden brown.
Spread the mashed avocado mixture evenly over the toasted almond flour bread.
Place the cooked egg on top of the avocado spread.
Garnish with freshly chopped chives and an additional pinch of black pepper if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
