Equipment

1 Chef's knife
1 Air fryer

Ingredients

1 avocado
2 slice bread
2 tbsp. peanut butter
¼ tsp. Pepper
2 pinches tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Lemon juice

Instructions

Skillet Instructions:

Heat your skillet on medium heat.
I just toast the bread without oil but feel free to brush with olive oil or butter (vegan or dairy) as per your choice.
Cook for approximately a minute on each side until the bread is toasted to a crisp, golden brown.

Air Fryer Toast Instructions:

Preheat air fryer to 360F (180C) for 5 minutes.
Brush bread slices with olive oil on both sides, and place two bread slices in air fryer basket.
Cook for around 4-6 minutes at 360F or 180C.
Flip the bread slices midway for even cooking.
Once golden, take out your air fryer toast.

Assembling Avocado and Peanut Butter Toast

Take a ripe avocado and cut it around the pit into half.
Carefully remove the pit.
Now, either slice the avocado into thin strips (my preferred way) or scoop out the flesh and mash it in a bowl.
Spread about 1 tbsp. of peanut butter on one side of the toasted bread.
Top the peanut butter layer with your sliced or mashed avocado.
Season to taste with a pinch of salt, a crack of pepper, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to bring out all the flavors.
You can also add any extra toppings (mentioned above the recipe) that you desire at this point.
Your nutritious and tasty avocado and peanut butter toast is ready to be savored.

Notes

1. Choose a ripe avocado: Look for an avocado that's firm but yields a little when you press it.

Ripe avocado is creamy and delicious.

2. Bread Selection: Any bread works well. I prefer thicker slices and use mostly multigrain or wholegrain bread.

3. Toast correctly: Whether using a skillet, toaster, or air fryer, make sure to toast the bread to a nice crisp golden brown.

4. Peanut Butter: You can opt for natural, unsweetened peanut butter like I have done.

Or you can try chocolate peanut butter. Smooth or chunky is again as per your preference.

5. Season well: A pinch of salt, a bit of pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice really enhance the flavors. You can use anything else that you like as well.

6.Serve Fresh: Avocado and peanut butter toast is best enjoyed fresh.

If you wish to make it in advance, toast the bread, slice the avocado and add lemon juice to avoid darkening.

Then assemble when you wish to eat.

7. Customize: This recipe is versatile, add your favorite toppings or seasonings.
