Ingredients

2 thick slices sourdough bread or desired bread, ½” thick
1 clove garlic peeled and crushed
2 heaping teaspoons Country Crock Plant Butter
2 teaspoons nutritional yeast
1 small ripe avocado or ½ a large avocado, peeled and cut into chunks
2 teaspoons good white truffle oil
1 lemon wedge to squeeze
Freshly cracked black pepper
Kala Namak very important, must use or don't make
Freshly chopped chives optional

Instructions

Toast the bread and immediately rub with crushed garlic clove all over the toast, including the crispy edges. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F, if serving hot.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of butter on each slice and dust with about 1 teaspoon of nutritional yeast on each slice.
Divide the avocado onto each slice and use a fork to smash.
Drizzle with about 1 teaspoon truffle oil to each slice. Squeeze only a few drops of lemon on top as well (about 4 drops on each slice).
Sprinkle a good amount of Kala Namak on top. Crack over some black pepper and sprinkle with chives.
Serve immediately or pop into the oven and bake for about 8 minutes, to warm thoroughly, if desired.

Notes

If slicing the bread yourself, I recommend refrigerating the bread first. This makes it much easier to slice!

When squeezing on the lemon, you don't want to overdo it! Just a few drops to wake up all of the flavors. If it's too acidic, it can ruin the recipe.

Same with the avocado- I don't care how much you love it! There can't be too much here or it will overwhelm the toast. A nice little layer is good. Try finding a small avocado to split for each slice or if you can only find a large avocado, use only 1/4th per slice.

Styling tip! If you save a few chunks of avocado, you can add a few pieces on top of the mashed avocado which gives it a nice appearance and some texture, like in the photographs on this post.
