This delightful Strawberry Basil Ricotta Toast combines the creaminess of ricotta with the sweetness of strawberries and the aromatic touch of fresh basil. Perfect for a light breakfast or a refreshing snack, this dish is elevated with sticky balsamic pearls for a gourmet finish.
Ingredients
- 1 slice rustic bread (sourdough or country loaf), thick
- 1/2 cup ricotta
- 12 tsp honey or maple syrup, optional, for the ricotta
- Pinch of salt
- 46 strawberries, sliced
- 46 basil leaves, torn
- Sticky Balsamic Original Pearls
- Extra honey, optional, to drizzle
- Cracked black pepper, optional, surprisingly good
Directions
Toast the bread until deeply golden and crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk ricotta with a pinch of salt (and honey/maple if using) until lighter and creamy.
Smear whipped ricotta thickly over the toast.
Add sliced strawberries and torn basil on top.
Scatter Original Balsamic Pearls generously. If a little of the dark balsamic liquid clings to the pearls, let it drip naturally for that glossy, just-spooned look.
