Bruschetta is an authentic Italian first-course antipasto (appetizer) that boasts the most exquisite flavors rendered by tomato-based salad consisting of herbs, balsamic vinegar, garlic flavoring, and more.

Easy Avocado Bruschetta Recipe Ingredient List

Simple ingredients create this amazing appetizer—the ones that you probably have on hand, if not all, in your kitchen. Let’s have a look at them —

Bread —Bread forms the essential component of this recipe as the entire base of the recipe rests on the bread! I have used French baguette and sourdough bread for this recipe.

Cherry Tomatoes — This recipe can be prepared with any kind of plum tomatoes. However, I have used cherry (grape) tomatoes as they lend a juicy burst of sweetness and clean, bright flavor to the bruschetta.

Garlic —One of the most important flavoring ingredients, garlic imparts tons of flavors to the bread.

Red Onions — These are added for an extra crunch that makes the recipe an exciting treat. You may use onion powder if red onions are unavailable.

Fresh basil — This adds an exotic basil flavor to our tomato and avocado Bruschetta recipe that is irreplaceable.

Lemon Juice — A hint of tang in the recipe adds extra freshness and zing to it and takes it to another level.

Black Pepper — When seasoned with freshly ground black pepper, this recipe tastes simply amazing.

Mozzarella cubes — Optional, but when added to the recipe, this adds an extra soft and creamy texture.

Avocados — This adds richness and delectability to the recipe. Avocados are a nutritional powerhouse of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, making this recipe nutrition-rich and healthy.

Extra virgin olive oil – Adds more taste and health to our recipe, making it completely exciting.

Recipe Tips and Variations

Fresh is the best — Bruschetta is best made with fresh and the most flavorsome ingredients, like garlic, tomatoes, avocados, and basil. Dried basil or garlic flakes will not work for this recipe, so they must be avoided.

For effortless slicing — Use a sharp serrated knife to slice the bread effortlessly. It is also best for dicing tomatoes easily and mess-free.

Perfect toasting — Overcrowding the skillet or baking tray while toasting the baguette slices will not render good results. For the crisp baguette slices, toast them in batches.

Use cherry tomatoes — Tomato is this recipe’s star ingredient; therefore, choosing the best ones will prepare the best recipe. Ripe and red cherry tomatoes are an excellent match for this recipe as we want something which is not very juicy and big. Tomato juices make the toasted Bruschetta soggy, something that we are not aiming for. Even if you toast the baguette well, juices love to make the bread soggy, so the solution is to use cherry tomatoes.

When using regular tomatoes — Cherry tomatoes are best suited for this recipe, but if you are using regular tomatoes, make sure to deseed them, salt them and drain them to get rid of excess juices. Cherry tomatoes are used for this recipe as they will save time for deseeding and draining, and they do not contain a lot of juices. Therefore, big tomatoes are no match for Bruschetta.

Customizing the recipe — You can customize this recipe according to your preferences. You may want to add some extra ingredients, such as diced green onions and red bell pepper with some red pepper flakes. It will be fantastic delicious customization!

The cheesy twist — Traditional Bruschetta is served with shavings of parmesan cheese, but I have added parmesan cheese cubes to this exotic recipe for Avocado Bruschetta.

For a robust flavor — Extra virgin olive oil added to the tomato mix renders a robust flavor to the recipe and hypes the overall taste.

The flavorful blending — When prepping this recipe, mix the tomato basil at least an hour in advance to allow the flavors to meld well. The juices settle to the bottom of the bowl, making the tomato mix more intensely flavorful.

Add the basil charm — Tear the basil with your fingers rather than cutting them with a knife. This will make them look fresh and more vibrant.

For the crispy toasts — You can use a skillet, a panini maker, a toaster, or even a grill pan to toast your bread slices crispy. You do not necessarily need an oven to crisp your toasts. You can use any of the mentioned methods.

The creative twist — This recipe can be customized easily; all it needs is some creativity. You can try adding other ingredients like chickpeas, mushrooms, roasted bell peppers, hummus, and many other ingredients for different flavors and textures.
