PREPARATION

These steps are followed for the preparation of Avocado Toast Bites On Wholegrain Bread:

• Prepare The Bread: Toast the half slice of wholegrain bread until golden and crisp to create a firm and crunchy base. If you prefer a softer bite, you can skip toasting and use fresh bread for a tender texture.
• Mash The Avocado: Cut and scoop out one-quarter of a ripe avocado into a small bowl. Mash it gently with a fork until it reaches a creamy texture with a few small chunks remaining for natural richness.
• Spread Evenly: Using a butter knife or the back of a spoon, spread the mashed avocado smoothly across the toasted bread. Ensure the surface is evenly covered for balanced flavour in every bite.
• Season With Black Pepper: Lightly sprinkle freshly ground black pepper over the top. This enhances the natural taste of the avocado and adds a hint of spice.
• Serve Fresh: Cut the toast into small, bite-sized squares or triangles. Serve immediately to enjoy its creamy, crisp and flavourful combination while the bread remains fresh and crunchy.

TIPS

• Choose Ripe Avocado: The avocado should give slightly when gently squeezed. If it is too firm or overly soft, it will affect the texture.

• Spice It Up: Add a pinch of chilli flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce for a bolder bite.
• Herb Infusion: Sprinkle with chopped parsley, coriander or chives to enhance freshness.
• Seed Sprinkle: Add sesame or sunflower seeds for texture and extra nutrients.
• Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free wholegrain bread if needed for dietary restrictions.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

• Refrigeration: If preparing in advance, store the mashed avocado in an airtight container with cling film pressed against the surface to prevent browning.
