Description
A quick and easy gourmet-style avocado toast topped with crushed pistachios and a drizzle of honey. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a healthy snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 slices of crusty bread (sourdough, whole grain, or artisan bread)
- 1 tablespoon crushed pistachios
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Sea salt to taste
- Cracked black pepper to taste
- Optional: chili flakes, lemon zest or juice, microgreens, goat cheese or feta
Instructions
- Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp using a toaster, skillet, or broiler.
- Slice the avocado, remove the pit, and mash the flesh in a bowl until mostly smooth with a few chunks for texture.
- Spread the mashed avocado evenly onto the toasted bread slices, reaching the edges for full coverage.
- Sprinkle crushed pistachios over the avocado layer for added crunch and flavor.
- Drizzle honey in a thin stream across the top of each toast.
- Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste, and add optional toppings like chili flakes or microgreens if desired.
- Serve immediately while warm and enjoy.
Notes
- Use thick bread to prevent sogginess.
- Add lemon juice to the avocado to prevent browning.
- Toast can be crisped in a skillet or oven if no toaster is available.
- Substitute pistachios with almonds, walnuts, or seeds for flexibility.
- For a vegan version, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
