1. Preparation
Gather all your ingredients: ripe avocados, bread, salt, pepper, and optional toppings.
If using a lemon, cut it in half and squeeze the juice into a small bowl.
Wash and dry the avocado, then slice it in half and remove the pit.
Scoop the avocado flesh into a mixing bowl.
2. Mashing the Avocado
Use a fork to mash the avocado in the mixing bowl until it reaches your desired level of creaminess.
If using lemon juice, add it to the mashed avocado and mix well.
Season the mashed avocado with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Toasting the Bread
Choose your favorite bread. Whole grain, sourdough, or rye all work well.
Toast the bread slices in a toaster or an oven until golden brown and crispy.
4. Assembling the Toast
Once the bread is toasted, remove it and let it cool slightly.
Spread a generous amount of the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices.
Add desired toppings such as sliced tomatoes, radishes, or a sprinkle of chili flakes.
5. Serving
Serve immediately while the toast is still warm.
Optionally, drizzle with olive oil or balsamic glaze for added flavor.
