Ingredients
4 slices rustic sourdough bread
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 tbsp honey, plus more for drizzling
1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp balsamic vinegar (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Slice the strawberries and toss with 1 tbsp honey and balsamic vinegar if using. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15–20 minutes until soft and caramelized.
In a bowl, whip the ricotta until smooth, then mix in 1 tbsp honey.
Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp.
Spread each toast with the whipped ricotta.
Top with honey-roasted strawberries, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Serve immediately while warm.
Notes
You can use fresh strawberries if short on time.
Whipping ricotta makes it creamier and more luxurious.
Optional toppings include crushed pistachios or a layer of mascarpone.
Store leftover roasted strawberries in the fridge for up to 3 days.
