How to make Whipped Avocado Toast
For Candied Nuts
Heat a saucepan over medium heat and dry roast the mixed nuts for 1 minute, stirring constantly to bring out their natural aroma.
Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, sea salt, and honey to the pan. Stir well to coat the nuts evenly.
Toss everything for about 1 minute, or until the sugar has dissolved and the nuts are evenly glazed. Set aside to cool.
For Sourdough Toast
Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and place the sourdough bread slices on it.
Drizzle a little olive oil over each slice and toast until golden and crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside.
For Whipped Avocado:
In a blender or food processor, combine the ripe avocado, cream cheese, salt, and a dash of lemon juice.
Gradually drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while blending on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth, creamy, and light.
Assembling the Whipped Avocado Toast
Spread the whipped avocado generously onto the toasted sourdough slices.
Top each slice with freshly sliced cherry tomatoes and scatter the candied nuts over the top for added crunch.
Drizzle with balsamic glaze for a touch of sweetness and serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks
Ripe Avocados: Use perfectly ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. They should be slightly soft to the touch but not mushy.
Lemon Juice: Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the avocado mixture to enhance the flavor and prevent browning.
Seasoning: Don’t forget to season your avocado mixture with salt and pepper. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
Whipping Technique: Use a fork or a hand blender to whip the avocado until it’s smooth and creamy. This will give your toast a luxurious texture.
Bread Choice: Use a high-quality, bread like sourdough or whole grain. Toast it to your preferred level of crispiness for the best base.
Toppings: Get creative with toppings! Consider adding sliced radishes, cherry tomatoes, microgreens, or a drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor and presentation.
FAQS
How do I make whipped avocado toast creamy and smooth?
To achieve a creamy and smooth texture for your whipped avocado toast, blend ripe avocados with cream cheese and a dash of lemon juice in a food processor. Gradually drizzle in extra-virgin olive oil while blending on high speed until the mixture is light and velvety.
What are some dietary substitutions for whipped avocado toast?
If you're looking for dietary substitutions, you can replace cream cheese with a dairy-free alternative like cashew cream or silken tofu for a vegan option. For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free bread instead of sourdough. You can also skip the honey and use maple syrup for a vegan sweetener.
How should I store leftover whipped avocado toast?
Leftover whipped avocado toast is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store the whipped avocado mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep the toasted bread separate to maintain its crispiness. When ready to eat, simply re-toast the bread and spread the avocado mixture on top.

Whipped avocado toast is versatile and can be topped with various ingredients. For a refreshing twist, add sliced cherry tomatoes or radishes. For extra protein, consider adding a soft-boiled egg or smoked salmon. A sprinkle of chili flakes or a drizzle of balsamic glaze can also enhance the flavor.
Can I make whipped avocado toast ahead of time for meal prep?
Yes, you can prepare the whipped avocado mixture ahead of time for meal prep. Just store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. However, it's best to toast the bread fresh right before serving to ensure it remains crispy. Assemble the toast just before eating for the best texture and flavor.
