Burrata Bacon Breakfast Toast

1.Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2.Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the bacon slices flat on it. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking. Once done, remove from the oven and let cool on paper towels to absorb excess grease.

3.While the bacon is baking, prepare the toast. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toast the slices of whole grain bread in the skillet until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

4.In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the fresh spinach until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

5.In a small saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer. Crack the eggs into individual small bowls and gently slide them into the simmering water. Poach the eggs for about 3-4 minutes for runny yolks or longer for firmer yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

6.To assemble the toast, spread a generous amount of burrata cheese on each slice of toasted bread. Top with the sautéed spinach, followed by slices of avocado. Place 1-2 slices of crispy bacon on top, and finish with a poached egg on each toast.

7.Season with additional salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately.
