  • 3 slices bread thick-cut, preferably whole grain for structure
  • 1½ ripe avocados soft but not mushy, peeled and pitted
  • ¼ teaspoon salt fine sea salt, plus more if needed for balance
  • Optional toppings as desired such as flaky salt, chili flakes, or lemon zest for extra flavor

Equipment

  2. Halve the avocados, discard the pits, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl using a spoon.
  3. Mash the avocado with a fork to your preferred texture, then stir in the salt and adjust seasoning if needed.
