# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's ready in under ten minutes but tastes like you spent way more effort than you did.
  • The creamy avocado and salty, spiced crunch create this perfect textural moment that keeps you coming back.
  • Once you understand the basic technique, you can improvise endlessly based on what's in your fridge.
02 -
  • Don't buy avocados the day you plan to make this unless you already know they're ripe—the timing is everything, and a hard avocado will ruin the entire experience.
  • That impulse to use every ounce of avocado? Resist it sometimes; a slightly thinner layer means the bread stays crispy longer and each bite has better balance.
03 -
  • Prep your avocado while the bread toasts so everything comes together while temperatures are optimal and nothing sits around oxidizing.
  • Keep lemon juice near your toaster on mornings when you're making this regularly; the habit of squeezing it fresh into the avocado makes a measurable difference in taste.
