Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your toaster or oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the rustic sourdough bread into thick pieces, about half an inch each. Place the slices on a baking sheet and toast them for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp.
  2. Remove the toasted bread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Spread the ricotta cheese generously over each slice.
  3. For the sweet option, slice fresh strawberries and arrange them on one of the ricotta-covered toasts. Drizzle honey over the strawberries.
  4. For the savory version, slice juicy cherry tomatoes and scatter them over another ricotta toast. Add torn fresh basil leaves and drizzle with olive oil.
  5. Mash a ripe avocado and spread it over another slice of ricotta toast, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  6. For a unique twist, drizzle honey over your remaining toast and sprinkle with black pepper.
  7. Serve your Ricotta Toast 4 Ways immediately while still fresh and warm.
