Next-Level Avocado Toast Recipe
Maxwell is going through an avocado phase. Every time he sees an avocado he starts kicking his feet and waving his arms. He is obsessed! I am glad because I get just as excited. Avocados make me want to do a happy dance! They are my favorite!
For Maxwell, I just mash up the avocado and he eats it by the spoonful. Nothing wrong with that, but I like to make avocado toast. It is my go-to. I eat it just about every day. I never get tired of it, but I recently took my avocado toast to the next level and made Garlic Bread Avocado Toast. That’s right, garlic bread meets avocado toast. They met, they said hello, and they instantly fell in love. Garlic bread and avocado make the perfect pair!
Garlic bread is a classic comfort food. It’s a staple. A must. The avocado just makes it better. Like WAY better. Trust me on this one!
How to Make Avocado Toast
- I started with a loaf of crusty French bread.
- Next, I combined softened butter with minced garlic. I slathered my bread slices with lots of butter and garlic!
- I put the bread in the oven to get nice and toasty! It crisped right up and our house smelled like an Italian restaurant!
- I then spread mashed avocado on each garlic toast and added sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a little crushed red pepper.
The result? Buttery, garlicky, crunchy, creamy garlic avocado toast goodness! This garlic bread / avocado toast has everything going for it. It is pretty much the best thing ever. I think I will be eating this every day from now on. Mashed avocado for Maxwell and Garlic Bread Avocado Toast for mama:)

Oooh! Talk about fresh and tasty. I want to make this today. 😀
Adore how you incorporated avocado with toast. Toast is just the hot thing right now. Kind of like the Back Street Boys were once. And still are to me. Plus you got the healthy fat plus a little carb which is going to keep you really full.
That is TOO cute that he reacts to avocado that way.
I sometimes do that too. But, at 24, it’s just not as cute.
But, avocado toast is my LIFE, so I am obsessed with the garlic-bread-izing here! Pinned!
These toasts sound perfect for any time of day! I love this!
It doesn’t get any better than this!!! YUM!
Avo toast is my go-to for lunch! I’ve never had a garlic bread version…sounds dreamy!
It is too good:)
ahhhh this recipe makes me SOOO happy!! I love avocado toast – but with the addition of the garlic spread – man oh mannn yum!
Maxwell knows what’s going on -avocado is where its at! Love this avocado garlic bread.
He’s a smart baby:)
I like the sound of garlic bread with avocado!
This was SO yummy! Hmmm….may just make it for lunch today!
Wish we could do lunch together! Miss you!
I’d be happy to eat this any time of day.
Easy and simple? Now you are talking! Plus, avocado toasts are always an 11/10 situation!
YES!
Avocado toast is my weakness. And with garlic? Oh man, I’m going to get out the toaster now…
I never though to put avocado on my toast. I usually have grape jelly or cinnamon sugar. I guess I should come out of the rock I am apparently living under. This sounds really good, and will most likely make a lunchtime appearance this week. Thank you!
You have to try it! It is SO good!
Oh dear, I would be eating like dozens of those toasts!! they sound and look divine!
I happy dance with avocado too!! Love these Maria!
That looks delicious!
I totally want this on our next pasta night! What a wonderful way to mash up two of my favorites, Maria 🙂
My boys all went for avocado immediately, too. I think we are just naturally supposed to love it! I need this for lunch!
I used to get the roasted garlic bread from Costco and add mashed avocados on top with just a bit of salt and pepper. It was a great breakfast! I’ll have to pick up some avocados and start doing it again 😉 Maybe I’ll pick up some of this garlic butter too and make things just a tad easier on myself since Costco no longer sells the bread.
Brilliant! I can’t wait to try it. I may have to rethink dinner!
I need to make this! It would be a perfect, easy lunch!
Avocados and garlic are my fav combo whenever I make guacamole! On a toast, it even sounds great! Great share, Maria!
These look so simple and tasty. ‘ll try them as a snak for my boys.
Avocados and garlic bread meet! Two of my faves 🙂
Such delicious looking toasts!

Try roasting the garlic (it becomes so sweet & creamy) before blending it into the butter.
This appetizer is so quick, easy, healthy & tasty!
