Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices sourdough bread, thickly sliced
- 1 ripe avocado, halved and pitted
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (such as basil or chives) for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the sourdough slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
- Toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- While the bread is toasting, scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Once the toast is ready, spread a generous layer of ricotta on each slice.
- Top with the mashed avocado, and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- This toast can be made ahead by preparing the avocado mash and ricotta mixture separately, storing them in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Store any leftover toast in an airtight container for up to 1 day, but note that the bread may become soggy.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute ricotta with a plant-based cream cheese or cashew cream.
