Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp ricotta cheese
  • 2 strawberries, sliced
  • 2 tbsp walnuts, chopped
  • 2 tbsp sliced almonds
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Toast the bread in a toaster for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown. Spread the olive oil lightly over the surface of each slice.
  2. Step 2: Spread the ricotta cheese evenly on top of each slice of toast.
  3. Step 3: Layer the sliced strawberries over the ricotta. Then sprinkle the chopped walnuts and sliced almonds on top.
  4. Step 4: Warm the honey in the microwave for 5 to 10 seconds to make it easier to drizzle. Drizzle the warm honey over the toast and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • Try using different fruits like blueberries or peaches for a seasonal twist.
  • Swap walnuts and almonds with pecans or pistachios for varied textures and flavors.
  • For a richer taste, drizzle a little maple syrup instead of honey.

Storage

This toast is best enjoyed fresh and warm. If you need to store leftovers, keep the components separate in airtight containers—ricotta, bread, and toppings—for up to one day. Reheat the bread slightly before assembling.
