Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until you achieve a creamy consistency. If you prefer a chunkier texture, mash it less.
- In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar. Whisk together until well-blended.
- While preparing the avocado and dressing, toast your bread slices to your preferred level of crispiness. You can do this in a toaster, under the broiler, or in a pan on the stovetop.
- Once the bread is toasted, spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each slice.
- Drizzle the balsamic and olive oil mixture evenly over the avocado-topped slices.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- For extra flavor and variety, you can add optional toppings such as:
- Halved cherry tomatoes
- A sprinkle of red pepper flakes
- Fresh arugula
- A poached or fried egg
- Serve the balsamic avocado toast immediately while the bread is still warm.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. You can tell an avocado is ripe if it yields slightly to gentle pressure.
- Toast your bread to your preferred level of crispiness. Whole grain or sourdough are excellent choices for added texture and flavor.
- For added flavor, you can sprinkle some sea salt, black pepper, or red pepper flakes onto the avocado.
- Drizzle extra olive oil and balsamic vinegar on top for a more robust taste.
