Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 peach, diced
- 100g bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 lime, juiced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Begin by cooking the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp and golden brown. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease and allow to cool completely.
- Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocados until they reach a slightly chunky consistency.
- Dice the fresh peach into small, uniform cubes, removing the pit and skin. Add the diced peach to the mashed avocados.
- Crumble the cooled bacon into small pieces and add to the avocado and peach mixture.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture to prevent browning and add brightness to the guacamole.
- Finely chop fresh cilantro and sprinkle it into the bowl.
- Season the guacamole with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Gently fold all ingredients together, ensuring even distribution.
- Cover the guacamole and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld together before serving.
- Serve chilled with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, or as a side dish. Best enjoyed fresh on the same day.
Tips
- Choose the Right Avocados: Make sure your avocados are perfectly ripe for the best creamy texture. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure but not be overly soft.
- Crisp the Bacon Just Right: Cook the bacon until it's golden brown and crispy to add the perfect crunch to your guacamole. Let it cool completely before crumbling to maintain its texture.
- Fresh Ingredients Matter: Use fresh peaches for a sweeter flavor. If peaches are out of season, try substituting with mango for a different fruity twist!
- Don’t Skip the Lime: Fresh lime juice not only adds brightness but also helps prevent the avocados from browning. Adjust the amount to your taste preference for acidity.
- Chill for Flavor: Allow the guacamole to sit in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before serving. This resting time helps the flavors meld together beautifully.
- Serving Suggestions: This guacamole pairs wonderfully with tortilla chips, but it also makes a fantastic topping for grilled chicken or fish tacos.
- Enjoy Fresh: For the best taste and texture, serve your guacamole the same day it’s made. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to minimize browning.
