Roasted Strawberry Ricotta Toast
This roasted strawberry ricotta toast is a delicious blend of caramelized strawberries, creamy whipped ricotta, and crispy bread. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or elegant brunch!
Ingredients
- 2 slices crusty bread (like sourdough or baguette)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, halved or quartered
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey (plus more for drizzling)
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- Pinch salt
- Pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a bowl, toss the strawberries with honey, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spreading them out evenly.
- Roast the strawberries for 15-20 minutes, or until they’re soft, juicy, and slightly caramelized.
- While the strawberries roast, whip the ricotta in a small bowl with olive oil and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and fluffy.
- Toast the bread slices in a skillet or toaster until golden and crisp. Warm bread ensures the ricotta spreads easily.
- Generously spread the whipped ricotta over each slice of toast.
- Top with the roasted strawberries. Drizzle with additional honey if desired, sprinkle fresh thyme leaves, and finish with a grind of black pepper.
- Serve immediately and savor every bite!
