Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces gluten-free bread slices
- 1 pieces ripe avocado
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 pieces bacon strips
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 4 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 4 pieces fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
Preheat a small pan over medium heat.
Add the bacon strips to the pan and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, place them on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
While the bacon cooks, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Add lemon juice, sea salt, and ground black pepper to the avocado, and mash with a fork until creamy.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside.
Toast the gluten-free bread slices in a toaster or on a dry skillet until golden brown.
Spread the mashed avocado generously over each slice of toast.
Cut each piece of bacon in half and layer them over the avocado on each toast slice.
Top with halved cherry tomatoes and fresh basil leaves if using.
Drizzle a small amount of extra virgin olive oil over the top for added flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free avocado toast with bacon.
