- 2 tablespoons water
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Step 2
Add lime juice to the avocado in the blender to prevent browning and enhance the flavor.

Add the sea salt and ground black pepper to season the avocado cream.
Step 7
For a bit of heat, add the optional cayenne pepper to taste.
Step 8
Begin blending the ingredients on a low setting, gradually increasing to high speed until smooth. Add water, a tablespoon at a time, to reach your desired consistency.
Step 9
Taste the avocado cream and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 10
Transfer the cream to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
