About the Recipe
Sun-dried Tomato and Avocado Smash Toast is the kind of recipe that proves simple ingredients can deliver big flavor. Creamy, ripe avocado provides a rich, buttery base, while sun-dried tomatoes add a bold, tangy punch that instantly elevates classic avocado toast. Finished on perfectly toasted bread with a drizzle of olive oil and a touch of seasoning, this easy toast comes together in minutes and works just as well for a quick breakfast as it does for a light lunch or elegant brunch option.
Ingredients
2 slices gluten -free rustic or sourdough bread
1 ripe avocado
2–3 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped (oil-packed, drained)
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Salt, pepper and garlic to taste
Optional toppings: red pepper flakes, fresh basil, microgreens, or a sprinkle of flaky sea salt
Preparation
Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp. Set aside.
In a small bowl, add the avocado flesh. Mash with a fork until mostly smooth but still slightly chunky.
Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Spoon the avocado mixture generously over the toasted bread.
Drizzle lightly with olive oil and add any optional toppings. Serve immediately.
