Ingredients

Scale

For the Roasted Strawberries

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 pinch salt

For the Whipped Ricotta

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon honey

For Assembly

  • 4 slices crusty bread (such as sourdough or rustic loaf)
  • Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon extra honey, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for roasting the strawberries, ensuring easy cleanup and even roasting.
  2. Prepare Strawberries: Toss the sliced fresh strawberries with honey, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until evenly coated. Spread them out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet for thorough roasting.
  3. Roast Strawberries: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the strawberries for 20-25 minutes. The strawberries will become soft, caramelized, and release their natural sweetness enhanced by the honey and balsamic vinegar.
  4. Make Whipped Ricotta: While the strawberries roast, combine the ricotta cheese, honey, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Whip them together until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and fluffy, which adds a luscious texture to the toast.
  5. Toast Bread: Toast the slices of crusty bread until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, providing a sturdy and flavorful foundation for the toppings.
  6. Assemble Toast: Spread a generous layer of the whipped ricotta onto each toasted bread slice. Then, spoon the warm roasted strawberries on top, allowing the juices to soak into the creamy cheese and crispy bread.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Garnish the toast with fresh herbs if desired, and drizzle extra honey over the top for added sweetness and a beautiful finishing touch. Serve immediately and enjoy!
