1
Toast the Sourdough
Place the slices of sourdough bread in a toaster or on a grill. Toast until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.

2
Prepare the Avocado
Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
3
Mash the Avocado
Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocado until it reaches your desired consistency (smooth or chunky).
4
Add Lemon Juice
Squeeze the juice of one whole lemon into the mashed avocado to add flavor and prevent browning.
5
Season the Spread
Add salt and black pepper to the avocado mixture. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

6
Top the Toast
Spread a generous amount of the avocado mixture onto each slice of toasted sourdough.
7
Add Chili Flakes
Sprinkle chili flakes on top of the avocado spread to taste, adding a spicy kick.
