Cut the avocados in half, remove the stones and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Mash coarsely with the lemon juice, garlic, red pepper (chilli) flakes, and dill. Season with salt and pepper.
Lightly toast the bread and spread the mashed avocado over it, right up to the edges.
Mix the cucumber, tomatoes, olives, and capers together in a bowl and use to cover the avocado toasts. Crumble the feta over the top and drizzle with olive oil.
Serve immediately.
