Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- 2 large slices of bread of choice
Toppings
- Approx. 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- Approx. 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 lemon, zest only
- 1/2 tsp honey
Instructions
- Toast Bread: Toast the two slices of bread using a toaster or by placing them in the oven until they reach your desired level of crispiness.
- Spread Ricotta: Evenly spread approximately 1/2 cup of ricotta cheese over each slice of toasted bread, creating a creamy base layer.
- Add Blueberries: Distribute about 1 cup of fresh blueberries evenly over the ricotta cheese on each toast, adding a burst of juicy sweetness.
- Drizzle Honey and Lemon Zest: Drizzle half a teaspoon of honey evenly over the blueberry-topped ricotta, then sprinkle the fresh lemon zest on top to add a bright and aromatic finish.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy the lemon blueberry ricotta toasts right away while the bread is still warm and the flavors fresh.
Notes
- Choose your favorite type of bread such as sourdough, whole wheat, or multigrain for varied texture and flavor.
- Fresh blueberries work best to maintain texture and flavor; frozen can be used but should be thawed and drained well.
- Adjust honey amount to taste if you prefer sweeter or less sweet toast.
- For a vegan version, substitute ricotta with plant-based cheese and use maple syrup instead of honey.
