Instructions
To create the Best Peach Bruschetta With Whipped Ricotta, follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This heat will help achieve the perfect crisp on your bread.
2. Prepare the Bread: Slice the French baguette into 1/2-inch thick pieces. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet.
3. Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush each slice with olive oil to enhance flavor and promote browning.
4. Toast the Bread: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and toast for about 5-7 minutes until golden.
5. Prepare the Whipped Ricotta: In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Use a fork to mix until smooth and creamy.
6. Chop Peaches: Dice the ripe peaches into small pieces. If desired, toss shortly with a touch of honey or lemon juice for extra flavor.
7. Assemble the Bruschetta: When the bread is toasted, remove it from the oven. Spread a generous tablespoon of whipped ricotta on each slice.
8. Top with Peaches: Place a spoonful of diced peaches on top of the ricotta layer.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle with torn basil leaves for freshness and flavor.
10. Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze: Finish by drizzling balsamic glaze over the bruschetta before serving.
These steps ensure your Best Peach Bruschetta With Whipped Ricotta is deliciously prepared with harmony and balance in every bite.
