A quick and easy recipe for creamy avocado toast made with ripe avocado, tangy lemon juice, and seasoned with black pepper, red chili flakes, and salt. Toasted to perfection using an air fryer, this nutritious breakfast or snack is ready in minutes and customizable with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Avocado Spread

  • 1 Ripe Avocado
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Black Pepper, to taste
  • Salt, to taste

Toast

  • 2 Bread Slices (any crusty bread)
  • Red Chilli Flakes, to taste

Instructions

  1. Toast the Bread: Place the bread slices in an air fryer basket and air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 7-8 minutes, turning the slices midway for even toasting. Alternatively, you can use a toaster, oven, or griddle according to your preference.
  2. Prepare the Avocado: Cut the avocado lengthwise in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh into a bowl.
  3. Mash the Avocado: Using a spoon, mash the avocado to your desired consistency—smooth or chunky.
  4. Season the Avocado: Add lemon juice, black pepper, and salt to taste. You can also sprinkle some salt directly on the toasted bread if preferred.
  5. Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the toasted bread slices.
  6. Add Toppings: Sprinkle red chilli flakes or any other seasonings you like on top. Optionally, add extra toppings of your choice.
  7. Alternate Sliced Method: For sliced avocado toast, pit and scoop the avocado, then cut it into lengthwise slices. Arrange the slices on toasted bread, drizzle with lemon juice, and season to taste.

Notes

  • If you prefer, you can use other methods like toaster, oven, or griddle for toasting the bread.
  • Adjust the chili flakes and black pepper according to your spice preference.
  • Adding lemon juice not only enhances flavor but also prevents the avocado from browning.
  • Feel free to add additional toppings such as cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, or sprouts for variation.
  • Use ripe avocado for best texture and flavor.
