Process Spread: Add 3 Tablespoons of water. Secure the lid and pulse for approximately 15-20 seconds. Aim for a texture where the avocado is mostly broken down into small, soft pieces, yet still retains some chunkiness for a pleasant mouthfeel. Avoid over-processing into a completely smooth paste. If the spread is too thick for your liking, add another 1-2 Tablespoons of water, one at a time, pulsing briefly to incorporate, until your desired consistency is achieved.

Transfer: Using a rubber spatula, carefully transfer the avocado cream to a serving bowl. For the best vibrant green color, use immediately.

Culinary Tip for Advance Preparation: If you need to make the spread ahead of time, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 hours. To help prevent browning, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the spread, or place one of the avocado pits into the spread. Remove the pit before serving.

Toast Bread: Gently toast the whole grain bread slices to your desired level of crispness, either in a toaster or under an oven broiler on low. Watch carefully to ensure they are lightly golden but not overly browned.

Shape Toasts: Once toasted, lay each slice flat on a cutting board. Firmly press your chosen cookie cutter through the center of each slice to create the shaped toasts. If needed, a small, sharp paring knife can be used to neaten the edges for a clean outline.

Resourceful Tip: Don't discard the bread crusts and leftover pieces! Store them in a sealed bag or container. They can be used to make excellent homemade breadcrumbs for other recipes, such as coatings for chicken or fish, or toppings for casseroles.

Assemble and Serve: Assemble Toasts: Spoon a portion of the Radiant Avocado Cream onto each Wholesome Toasted Heart, spreading it gently.

Serve: Arrange the finished Glow-Up Avocado Toast Hearts on a platter or individual plates. Serve without delay to best appreciate the vibrant color, fresh flavors, and crisp texture.
