By newspaperup_pro A rich and decadent treat! Molten chocolate cakes are a delight for the senses, and I’m happy to indulge in your enthusiasm.
Ingredients:
2 slices of artisanal bread (e.g., baguette, ciabatta, or brioche)
1 ripe avocado, mashed
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for some heat)
Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
Feta cheese or crumbled goat cheese (optional)
Instructions:
Toast the bread: Preheat your toaster or toaster oven to 350°F (180°C). Slice the bread into 1-inch thick pieces and toast until lightly browned.
Mash the avocado: Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Mash the avocado in a bowl with a fork until it’s smooth and creamy.
Prepare the toppings: Thinly slice the red onion and set aside. Mix the salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes (if using) in a small bowl.
Assemble the toast: Spread the mashed avocado on top of the toasted bread slices. Drizzle the salt and pepper mixture over the avocado.
Add the toppings:
Sprinkle the thinly sliced red onion over the avocado. If using, crumble some feta cheese or goat cheese on top.
Garnish with cilantro: Place a few fresh cilantro leaves on top of the toast for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve and enjoy: Cut the toast into halves or quarters and serve immediately.
Tips and Variations:
Use ripe avocados for the best flavor and texture.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your desired level of spiciness.
Add some cherry tomatoes or sliced bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrients.
Swap out feta cheese for goat cheese or crumbled ricotta for a different flavor profile.
Try using different types of bread, such as sourdough or multigrain, for a unique flavor.
Enjoy your perfect avocado toast for breakfast!
