1
Toast the Sourdough
Place the slices of sourdough bread in a toaster or on a grill. Toast until golden brown and crispy. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes depending on the method used.
2
Prepare the Avocado
While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash with a fork until creamy but still slightly chunky.
3
Season the Avocado
Add salt, lemon juice, and a drizzle of olive oil to the mashed avocado. Stir well to combine. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if necessary.

4
Spread the Avocado
Once the sourdough is toasted, spread the seasoned avocado mixture evenly on top of each slice.
5
Add Toppings
Sprinkle chili flakes over the avocado toast. Add a pinch of black pepper to taste.
