Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons honey plus extra for drizzling
  • 4 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Gently mash the blueberries with a fork to release some juices, then set aside to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. While the blueberries are marinating, preheat your oven to 400°F. Place the slices of bread on a baking sheet and brush each side lightly with olive oil.
  3. Toast the bread in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with 2 tablespoons of honey and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
  5. Once the bread is toasted, spread a generous layer of the ricotta mixture on each slice.
  6. Top the ricotta with the marinated blueberries, ensuring an even distribution.
  7. Drizzle a little extra honey over the top for added sweetness, and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious toast!
