Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons blueberry jam
  • ½ cup whole milk ricotta cheese
  • 1 teaspoon honey Plus more for drizzling
  • ⅛ - ¼ teaspoon cinnamon, divided
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sliced almonds, optional
  • flaky sea salt, optional
  • 2 Thick slices of bread

Instructions

  • Stir blueberries, jam, a pinch of cinnamon, and a pinch of black pepper in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir. Warm for 30-45 seconds on high in the microwave. Stir and gently mash some of the blueberries. Set aside to cool.
  • Stir the ricotta, honey, ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of black pepper in a small bowl.
  • Toast the bread. Spread each piece of toast with a thick layer of ricotta. Top with the blueberry jam and a sprinkle of almonds and sea salt, if desired.

Notes

  • ​Let the blueberry jam mixture cool to thicken up a bit before spooning it onto the toast. 
  • Frozen blueberries may also be used -- the topping just won't thicken up as much. 
  • Optional step, whip the ricotta with a hand mixer until it's smooth and creamy. 
  • Try toasting bread on the stovetop! Heat butter or olive oil in a pan over medium heat, add your favorite bread, and heat and flip until both sides are golden brown.
