How to Make Avocado and Cheese Canapes
Now that you’re all set with the equipment and ingredients, let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps to create your Avocado and Cheese Canapes:
Step 1. Toast the Bread Slices in Butter:
Heat a pan and melt the butter. Place the slices of bread into the pan and toast them until they’re golden brown on both sides.
Step 2. Grate the Cheese:
Choose the cheese you like and grate it. You can use as much or as little cheese as you prefer.
Step 3. Prepare the Avocado:
Once the bread slices are toasted, set them aside to cool slightly. In the meantime, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the creamy flesh. Take one half of the avocado for the recipe and another place into the fridge.
Step 5. Assemble the Canapes: Spread the ripe avocado evenly on each slice of toasted bread. Then, sprinkle the grated cheese on top. For an extra touch, you can season with a pinch of salt and pepper. As for me I omitted spices because cheese gave enough of the brightness to the canapes.
Tips for Perfect Result
- Take Ripe Avocado: Make sure your avocado is perfectly ripe. This will help to spread it on a slice of bread for evenly.
- Experiment with Cheese: While cheddar or Swiss cheese work wonderfully, feel free to experiment with different types like mozzarella, pepper jack, or even goat cheese for a unique twist.
- Add Favorite Greens: This step make canapes more healthy and give additional freshness. You may take parsley, dill, baby spinach or arugula.
- Adjust the recipe for your needs: Feel free to make experiments on your kitchen. Add some sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon for extra layers of flavor and texture. You can choose different types of cheese or bread, too.
