The Ultimate Avocado Toast

Gather the ingredients.

Toast the bread slices to your desired level of crunchiness.

Cut, pit, and remove the avocado from its peel.

Mash avocado with a fork in a small bowl until it reaches your desired texture. Mix in the lemon juice as you mash. A fork works best but you can also use a mortar and pestle if you wish.

Divide the avocado mixture between the two slices of toast. Drizzle olive oil over the top of each slice. Add a sprinkle of the red pepper flakes and salt to each piece and serve immediately.
