These bite-sized appetizers pair toasted baguette slices with lightly seasoned mashed avocado and a scattering of fresh microgreens for a crunchy-creamy contrast. A quick squeeze of lemon keeps the avocado bright while a pinch of flaky salt and red pepper flakes adds depth. They come together quickly, making them a practical choice for parties, brunches, or light appetizers.

Ingredients

  • 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 ripe avocados
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup microgreens
  • 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Arrange the baguette rounds on a baking sheet in a single layer and brush both sides lightly with olive oil.

  2. Bake the baguette rounds until golden and crisp, flipping once halfway through, about 10 minutes total.

  3. While the toasts bake, halve and pit the avocados, then scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.

  4. Add the lemon juice, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper to the avocado. Mash with a fork until mostly smooth with some texture remaining.

  5. Remove the toasts from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before topping.

  6. Spread or dollop about 1 tablespoon of mashed avocado onto each toast round.

  7. Top each bite with a small pinch of microgreens, then sprinkle with red pepper flakes and flaky sea salt. Serve immediately.
