Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
While the bacon is cooking, prepare the spicy guacamole. Scoop out the flesh of the avocados into a bowl and mash until smooth but slightly chunky.
Add lime juice, diced jalapeño, minced garlic, sea salt, and ground cumin to the mashed avocados. Mix well to combine, and adjust seasoning if needed. Set aside.
Lightly brush one side of each bread slice with olive oil or butter. Toast the bread slices in a clean skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Set aside.
Assemble the BLT sandwiches. Spread a generous layer of spicy guacamole onto each bread slice.
Layer on romaine lettuce, tomato slices, and crispy bacon on two of the bread slices.
Top each sandwich with the remaining bread slices, guacamole side down.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your zesty and satisfying BLT with Spicy Guacamole!
