This Roasted Strawberry Whipped Ricotta Toast is a deliciously elegant breakfast or brunch option. Juicy strawberries roasted to a jammy consistency are layered over smooth, creamy whipped ricotta on toasted crusty bread, topped with optional herbs or honey for a fresh, satisfying dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and halved or whole
  • 1–2 tbsp honey (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese (full-fat or whole milk recommended)
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp lemon zest (optional)
  • 1 tsp olive oil (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2–4 slices of crusty bread (sourdough, rustic loaf, or artisan bread)
  • Optional garnish: fresh thyme, basil, or mint; extra honey; cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 190–200°C (375–400°F).
  2. In a bowl, toss strawberries with honey, optional balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Spread strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway, until soft and jammy. Let cool slightly.
  4. In a food processor or using a hand mixer, blend ricotta with honey, lemon zest, olive oil, and a pinch of salt until smooth and fluffy.
  5. Toast bread slices until golden and crisp.
  6. Spread whipped ricotta over each toast slice, then spoon roasted strawberries and their juices on top.
  7. Garnish with fresh herbs, an extra drizzle of honey, or cracked pepper as desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use day-old crusty bread to prevent sogginess.
  • For a savory twist, reduce sweetness and add flaky salt or more olive oil.
  • Roasted strawberries and whipped ricotta can be made ahead and stored separately in the fridge.
  • Try with other fruits like peaches, figs, or cherries.
  • Add crunch with toppings like chopped pistachios or almonds.
