Ingredients
-
1/2 baguette, sliced into ½-inch pieces
-
Oil or cooking spray
-
2 ripe peaches, roughly chopped
-
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
-
Honey, to taste
-
Fresh basil, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
-
Toast the bread:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush or spray with oil. -
Bake:
Toast for 3–5 minutes, until lightly golden and crisp. Remove and allow to cool completely. -
Assemble:
Spread about 2 tablespoons ricotta onto each toast. Top with 2 tablespoons chopped peaches. -
Finish:
Drizzle with honey and garnish with fresh basil if using. Serve immediately.
Notes
Let the toasted bread cool fully before adding ricotta — warm bread softens the topping too quickly. For parties or picnics, transport components separately and assemble on-site for the freshest texture.
