Ingredients:
2 ripe avocados
4 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, whole grain, etc.)
1 tablespoon lavender salt (Oak Lore Farm Lavender Salt)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1-2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
Red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
Fresh herbs (e.g., basil, cilantro) for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Avocados: Start by cutting the avocados in half and removing the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add the lemon juice to prevent browning and mash the avocados with a fork until smooth but still slightly chunky. For an extra kick of flavor, mix in minced garlic if desired.
Toast the Bread: Toast your bread slices to your preferred level of crispiness. This step is crucial as the toast provides a satisfying crunch that contrasts nicely with the creamy avocado.
Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado generously onto each slice of toasted bread. The creamy avocado serves as the perfect base for the unique flavor of lavender salt.
Season: Sprinkle the lavender salt evenly over the avocado-topped toast. If you enjoy a touch of spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
Add Olive Oil: Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the top of the toast to add a layer of richness and to enhance the overall flavor.
Garnish: Optionally, garnish your avocado toast with fresh herbs like basil or cilantro. This not only adds a burst of color but also complements the flavors beautifully.
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the toast immediately for the best flavor and texture. Enjoy the sophisticated and delightful taste of your lavender salt avocado toast!
Tips for Success:
Choose ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
Use high-quality bread to make sure your toast holds up well and provides a good base for the toppings.
Adjust the amount of lavender salt to suit your taste. Start with a little and add more if desired.
