Description
Crispy artisan bread topped with creamy ricotta and sweet, caramelized roasted strawberries for a gourmet breakfast or snack.
Ingredients
1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
1 tablespoon honey (plus extra for drizzling)
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 slices crusty bread (such as sourdough)
1 tablespoon olive oil
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, toss strawberries with honey and balsamic vinegar. Spread them evenly on the prepared sheet.
Roast for 15–20 minutes, or until the strawberries are soft and slightly caramelized.
While strawberries roast, place ricotta, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Brush bread slices with olive oil and toast in a skillet or under a broiler until golden and crisp.
Spread whipped ricotta generously over each toast slice.
Top with warm roasted strawberries.
Drizzle with extra honey and garnish with mint leaves if desired.
Serve immediately.
