Variations

• Vegetarian Option: Omit the bacon and add sliced radishes or crumbled feta for extra flavor.

• Add Eggs: Top with a slice of soft-boiled or quail egg for extra protein and richness.

• Spicy Kick: Mix crushed red pepper or diced jalapeño into the avocado.

• Citrus Twist: Swap lemon juice for lime juice for a zestier avocado base.

• Different Bread: Use sourdough or whole grain bread cut into bite-sized pieces as an alternative to baguette.

Storage/Reheating

Assembled avocado toast bites are best enjoyed fresh and should not be stored once assembled, as the avocado may brown and the bread will soften.
To prepare ahead of time, toast the bread and store in an airtight container. The avocado mash can be made a few hours ahead and stored in the fridge with plastic wrap pressed directly on the surface to minimize browning.

FAQs

Can I make these ahead of time?

You can toast the bread and prepare the avocado mash in advance, but assemble them just before serving to maintain freshness.

How do I keep the avocado from browning?

Add extra lemon or lime juice and press plastic wrap tightly over the surface of the avocado mixture to limit air exposure.

Can I use store-bought guacamole instead?

Yes, store-bought guacamole is a convenient option if you’re short on time, though homemade offers fresher flavor.

Are there other toppings I can use?

Yes, try microgreens, red pepper flakes, crumbled feta, or thinly sliced radish for a colorful garnish.

Can I make this gluten-free?

Use gluten-free baguette or bread alternatives to make the recipe suitable for gluten-free diets.

Is everything bagel seasoning necessary?

No, but it adds a great crunch and savory flavor. You can substitute with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Can I use different types of tomatoes?

Yes, grape tomatoes, heirloom cherry tomatoes, or even diced regular tomatoes work well.

How do I make the toast extra crispy?

Toast the bread slightly longer or broil briefly for a more intense crunch—just keep an eye on it to avoid burning.

Can I serve this at room temperature?

Yes, but it’s best served slightly warm or freshly made for optimal taste and texture.

What’s the best type of avocado to use?

Hass avocados are preferred for their creamy texture and rich flavor, making them ideal for mashing.
