Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado (slightly soft to gentle pressure)
- 2 slices of hearty bread (sourdough or multigrain recommended)
- Everything bagel seasoning (contains sesame seeds, poppy seeds, garlic, onion, and salt)
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
- Olive oil (optional, for drizzling)
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Toast the Bread: Start by toasting your preferred bread until it reaches a golden, crispy texture that perfectly supports the toppings without getting soggy.
- Prepare the Avocado: Cut a ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the creamy flesh into a bowl. Mash it gently with a fork to your desired consistency—smooth or chunky, your call.
- Season the Avocado: Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the mashed avocado. Mix well to combine flavors and help keep the avocado vibrant and fresh.
- Assemble the Toast: Spread the seasoned avocado evenly over your toasted bread. Don’t be shy—make sure every corner is covered in that luscious green goodness.
- Sprinkle Everything Bagel Seasoning: Generously sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over the avocado layer. This seasoning provides that crunchy, savory punch that makes this toast unforgettable.
Notes
- Choose avocados that are slightly soft but not mushy for the best texture.
- Aim for golden and crisp toast to avoid bitterness and sogginess.
- Use fresh everything bagel seasoning for strongest crunch and flavor.
- Always add lemon juice to keep avocado fresh and vibrant.
- Mash avocado with a fork rather than a blender for better texture.
- Add delicate toppings like herbs or cheese just before serving to retain freshness.
- Store leftover mashed avocado in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed on top to prevent browning.
- Reheat toast briefly before adding avocado and seasoning to maintain crispness.
