Ingredients
Scale
For the Honey Ricotta Base:
- 3/4 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1/3 cup sliced almonds (lightly toasted if desired)
- 3/4 teaspoon honey
- 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
- Pinch of fine sea salt
For Assembly & Serving:
- 3-4 slices sturdy whole wheat bread or thick-cut multigrain bread
- 1 medium ripe peach (thinly sliced)
- 1 tablespoon sliced almonds (for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon honey (for drizzling)
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Ricotta Mixture: In a small mixing bowl, combine the whole milk ricotta, 1/3 cup sliced almonds, 3/4 teaspoon honey, almond extract, and the pinch of sea salt. Gently stir until just incorporated – avoid overmixing to maintain some texture.
- Toast the Bread: Toast the bread slices to your preferred level of crispness and golden-brown color using a toaster or broiler.
- Assemble the Toasts: Allow the toast to cool slightly. Spread approximately 1.5 to 2 tablespoons of the honey ricotta mixture evenly onto each warm slice.
- Arrange Fruit: Place several thin slices of fresh peach over the ricotta layer on each toast.
- Garnish and Finish: Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of sliced almonds over the peaches. Drizzle the extra 1 teaspoon of honey across the toasts. If desired, scatter the chia seeds over the top.
- Serve: Present the toasts immediately while the bread is warm.
