Gather and prep your ingredients.

In a medium bowl, combine the minced shallot, salt, and lime juice. Let it sit for 10 minutes.

Pit and peel the avocados. Take half of the flesh and mash it in a bowl with a fork.

Pour the lime mixture into the bowl and combine with the mashed avocado.

Dice the remainder of the avocado flesh into ¾-inch cubes, and gently incorporate into the mixture in the bowl. (Or mash it up more if you want creamier guacamole.)

Add freshly ground pepper and Aleppo pepper (if desired) to taste.
