Main Ingredients
- 1 slice of thick-sliced whole-grain bread
- ½ ripe avocado
- Pinch of salt (about ⅛ teaspoon)
Optional Toppings
- Flaky sea salt
- Other extra toppings as desired (e.g., red pepper flakes, cherry tomatoes, olive oil drizzle, microgreens)
Instructions
- Toast the bread: Toast your slice of whole-grain bread until it is golden brown and firm to the touch, ensuring a crispy base for the avocado spread.
- Prepare the avocado: Remove the pit from the ripe avocado. Using a large spoon, scoop out the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork until you achieve your preferred smoothness. Stir in a pinch of salt (approximately ⅛ teaspoon) and adjust the seasoning to taste.
- Assemble the toast: Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread. Enjoy it plain or enhance it with optional toppings, such as a light sprinkle of flaky sea salt for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Choose ripe avocados for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
- Experiment with various toppings like chili flakes, lemon juice, or sliced tomatoes to customize your avocado toast.
- For extra crunch, add toasted nuts or seeds on top.
- Use freshly toasted bread each time to keep the toast crisp.
