Instructions
Here’s how to create your Quick Peach Bruschetta with Whipped Ricotta effortlessly:
1. Prepare the Bread: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the slices of bread on a baking sheet and brush each slice with olive oil.
2. Toast the Bread: Place the bread in the preheated oven and toast for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
3. Make the Whipped Ricotta: While the bread is toasting, whisk together the ricotta cheese, honey, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl until creamy and smooth.
4. Prepare the Peaches: In a separate bowl, combine the diced peaches with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of honey if desired. Gently toss to coat.
5. Assemble the Bruschetta: Once the bread is toasted, spread a generous layer of the whipped ricotta on top of each slice.
6. Top with Peaches: Spoon the prepared peaches over the ricotta-covered bread.
7. Add Finishing Touches: Garnish with fresh basil leaves and cracked black pepper for an added burst of flavor.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Quick Peach Bruschetta while the bread is still warm and the flavors are vibrant.
