Pro Tips
- For extra texture, reserve a few whole butter beans and fold them into the mash before spreading. The contrast between the creamy mash and whole beans makes every bite more interesting. This toast is also excellent topped with sliced avocado, cucumber ribbons, or a jammy egg.
- Butter beans have a naturally rich, almost buttery texture that makes them the perfect canvas for Yo Amma Indian Chili Crisp. The creamy beans mellow the spice while the chili crisp adds crunch, warmth, and depth. It's a simple toast that eats like a full meal.
