Ingredients

  • 2 slices bread, any kind (I like to use a multi-grain bread)
  • 1 small ripe avocado, 4 to 5 ounces (sometimes labeled as mini avocado)
  • pinch salt, or to taste
  • everything bagel seasoning, to taste (I use about 1 teaspoon total); I use my Homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning

Instructions

  • Toast the bread to your liking.
    I recommend toasting the bread well (being careful not to burn it) to get that nice contrast between the crisp toast and the soft avocado.
  • Cut the avocado in half from top to bottom with a knife, cutting around the pit (do this on a cutting board and not in your hand!). Gently twist the two halves to open up the avocado. Remove the pit by gently squeezing the sides of the avocado, working your way around until the pit loosens from the flesh. Then just pop it out with the tip of your knife or a spoon.
    Note: An alternative method for removing the pit is to pierce the pit with your knife and give it a twist (it should then easily pop out). If you want to do it this way, do it on the cutting board, not in your hand, and be very careful!
  • With a spoon, scoop the avocado out of the skin into a bowl.
  • Sprinkle the avocado with a pinch of salt and mash to your desired consistency (I like to mash it mostly smooth with just a few small chunks here and there).
    Note: If your everything bagel seasoning contains salt, you really only need to add a pinch here to salt the avocado. If there is no salt in your seasoning, you may want to add a little more.
  • Spread half of the mashed avocado on each slice of toast.
  • Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning to taste.
  • Serve immediately.

Recipe Notes

  • When perfectly ripe, the avocado skin will be very dark green (almost black) and a little bumpy, and the avocado will yield slightly when you give it a gentle squeeze (very soft and mushy = over-ripe).
