Step 1
Fill a small pot with water, add vinegar, and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Step 2
Toast bread until golden and crispy, about 2 minutes per side in a toaster or skillet.
Step 3
Cut avocado in half, scoop into a bowl, and mash with a fork until chunky-smooth.
Step 4
Squeeze lemon over avocado, season with salt and pepper, and stir gently.
Step 5
Crack eggs into the simmering water one at a time; poach until whites set but yolks jiggle, 3–4 minutes.

Spread avocado on toast, top each slice with a poached egg, and finish with flaky salt and cracked pepper.
