- Preheat oven to 400˚F. Place bacon on a foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until browned and crisp then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
- In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients and set aside.
- Lightly butter both sides of the toast and toast on a dry griddle or skillet over medium-high heat just until golden brown.
- Arrange 4 slices of bread on a cutting board and spread 1 tablespoon of sauce over each toast. Add lettuce then tomato, bacon, avocado. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the avocado.
- Spread 1 tablespoon sauce over the remaining toasted bread and place over the sandwich, sauce side down. Cut in half if desired and serve.
Notes
This recipe calls for regular thin-cut bacon which is easier to bite through, but if you prefer using thick-cut bacon, bake in the oven for 20-28 minutes or to your desired crispness.
