Ricotta Toast (Sweet or Savory)
This five-minute wonder pairs thick-cut toasted bread with rich, creamy ricotta and your pick of toppings—from honey and figs to prosciutto and chili flakes. It's breakfast that feels fancy but plays nice with your schedule.
Ingredients
- 2 slices thick-cut bread sourdough or whole grain
- 1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese no low-fat allowed
- toppings of choice fruit, nuts, herbs, honey, prosciutto, chili flakes
- olive oil for drizzling
- sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Toast the bread until golden and crisp using a toaster or skillet.
- Generously spread ricotta on the toast—no stingy layers.
- Top with your choice of sweet or savory toppings (e.g., honey and figs, or prosciutto and basil).
- Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt and cracked pepper.
- Serve immediately. Skip the plate if you're feeling rebellious.
Notes
Use the good ricotta—it makes all the difference. Keep toppings minimal (three max) for best flavor balance. Always toast to crunchy perfection. Assemble fresh to avoid soggy bread sadness.
