Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices Bread
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 8 slices Ham
  • 4 Egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cayenne Pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Chopped Chives
  • 1 large Avocado
  • Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place slices of bread on the prepared pan. Use a one cup measuring cup to press down the center of each slice. This will create a divot for the egg to go into!
  • Brush the edges of the toast with oil evenly.
  • Place 2 slices of ham in the center of the divot. Crack and egg inside of each divot. Sprinkle the edges of each slice with shredded cheese, dividing evenly between them all.
  • In a small bowl, stir together chili pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Sprinkle this spice mixture evenly over each slice.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, until the white of the egg is cooked through but the yolk is still runny.
  • Sprinkle with chopped chives and top with sliced avocado. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, if desired. Serve immediately.
