Prepare the Bread

Toast the Sourdough
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the sourdough bread slices on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, you can toast them in a toaster.

Mash the Avocados
In a medium bowl, scoop out the flesh of the ripe avocados. Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Use a fork to mash the avocados until smooth but still slightly chunky. Set aside.

Spread and Top
Once the bread is toasted, spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture onto each slice. Top with halved cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with fresh basil leaves. Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top for added flavor.
