Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

  • 2 thick slices country French bread, toasted

  • 1 peach - halved, pitted, and sliced

  • 2 basil leaves, thinly sliced

  • balsamic glaze for drizzling

Directions

  1. Add ricotta, olive oil, and lemon juice to a mini food processor, and blend until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.

  2. Spread ricotta evenly on each slice of toast. Layer peach slices on top of ricotta, sprinkle with basil, and drizzle with balsamic glaze.

    Cook’s Note

    Use your favorite crusty bread. I like to whip up a batch of ricotta on the weekend and keep it in the fridge for a quick breakfast or snack.
