Ingredients
For the Toast
- 2 slices of artisan bread, such as sourdough
For the Ricotta Spread
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
Toppings
- Fresh berries (such as blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries), to taste
- Honey, for drizzling
Instructions
- Whip Ricotta: Using a food processor or mini chopper, whip the ricotta cheese until smooth and creamy. This step is optional but greatly enhances the texture and creaminess of the spread.
- Toast Bread: Toast the artisan bread slices either in a toaster or on a grill pan until golden and crispy to your liking.
- Assemble Toast: Spread the whipped ricotta evenly over the toasted bread slices. Top generously with fresh berries and finish with a light drizzle of honey for sweetness.
Notes
- You can substitute artisan bread with whole wheat or gluten-free bread as desired.
- Try different toppings like nuts, seeds, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for variety.
- Use full-fat ricotta for richer flavor or part-skim for a lighter option.
- This recipe is best served immediately to enjoy the contrast between creamy ricotta and warm toast.
