Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan with a small amount of olive oil or line with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe avocados until smooth using a fork or potato masher. Ensure there are minimal lumps for a smooth texture.
Add the lemon juice to the mashed avocados to prevent browning and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
To the avocado mixture, add the sugar, eggs, and olive oil, stirring until fully combined and smooth.
Mix in the vanilla extract and almond milk, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to ensure a tender bread.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy your Low Sodium Avocado Bread Delight as is, or with a smear of your favorite low sodium spread or toppings.
