Description
Apple Pice Avocado Toast with seasonal apples, walnuts, and 2-ingredient date caramel. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack!
Ingredients
- 15–20 soft, gooey Medjool dates (soak in boiling water for 10 minutes to soften
- 1/2 cup water + 1 TBSP increments until you reach desired consistency
- 4 slices of bread, toasted (gluten-free if needed)
- 2 avocados
- 1 lemon, squeezed
- Himalayan sea salt
- 1 apple, any kind!
- 1/2 cup walnuts (optional to toast them for 8 minutes at 350°F but I used raw nuts here)
Instructions
- To make the easy date caramel, add your gooey dates to a food processor and blend until they are finely chopped.
- Add the water and blend until it turns into a date “paste”. Continue to add water in 1-2 TBSP increments and pulse until the paste turns into a smooth runny liquid*.
- Transfer the date caramel to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- Slice your avocados in half and score the inside with a knife.
- Squeeze a bit of fresh lemon into each avocado halve and sprinkle them with a bit of Himalayan sea salt and set aside to marinade.
- Meanwhile, toast your bread and core and slice your apples into thin wedges*.
- To assemble the Apple Pie Avocado Toasts, scoop out the lemon sea salt avocado mixture and smash 1/2 avocado on each toast with a fork. Top the toast with sliced apple, walnuts, and drizzle with easy date caramel. Garnish with hemp hearts. Serve immediately!
Notes
Use more water for a runnier drizzly date caramel and less for a thick, spreadable caramel. I added more water to mine and used a piping bag to drizzle my date caramel onto the toast.
If preparing the ingredients to assemble later toss your apple in lemon juice to prevent browning.
