I LOVE avocados is the new mini series I will be doing to highlight the different things that you can do with the simple avocado. They are creamy and can be used in sweet or savory dishes. Today, I made simple toast topped with sweetened avocado and banana.
Ingredients
- 2 pieces of toast ( I used light whole wheat toast)
- half of an avocado
- 1/2 tbsp honey
- sprinkle of cinnamon
- 1 chopped banana (you really only need about 1/2 to top the toast, but I always just eat the other half)
Toast your bread.
Meanwhile, mash the avocado, honey, and cinnamon in a bowl.
Spread avocado mixture over toast and top with sliced banana. Optional: Drizzle a little more honey over the top.
This was super yummy! I never knew that avocado would taste good sweet. I was a little hesitant to use honey because I’ve had some bad experiences with it before. Let’s just say some of my relatives tried to feed me a spoonful of honey to try to get rid of my sore throat when I was little. Ever since, I always have gagged when I smelled honey. Today, though, it tasted wonderful with the dish. I think I liked this breakfast even more because it used banana!
