Start by toasting the sourdough bread slices either in a toaster or on a grill pan over medium heat until each side is golden brown and crispy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
While the bread is toasting, cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl.
Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the bowl with the avocados.
Using a fork, mash the avocado mixture until you reach your desired consistency; smooth or chunky, depending on preference.
Peel and cut the garlic clove in half. Once the bread is toasted, gently rub the surface of each slice with the cut side of the garlic for added flavor.
Spread an even layer of the mashed avocado mixture onto each toasted sourdough slice.
For an optional touch, slice the cherry tomatoes and arrange them on top of the avocado. You can also add a handful of arugula for extra freshness.
Sprinkle with chili flakes for a slight kick, and serve immediately.
