    Sometimes there is nothing better than fresh fruit for breakfast, and what better way to enjoy it than on this beautiful ricotta toast! We love this toast because it uses buttery thick-sliced brioche bread that pairs so well with the fresh fruit. Plus it is sprinkled with granola for texture and drizzled with honey for sweetness.

    Breakfast toasts are a quick and easy way to make a satisfying breakfast when you're short on time. Some of our favorites include smoked salmon toast, avocado tomato toast, and peanut butter toast.

    🥣 Equipment

    • Medium bowl. Used to whip the ricotta.
    • Wire whisk. Used to whip the ricotta.
    • Toaster. Used to toast the brioche bread slices. If you don't have a toaster, you can use a toaster oven or regular oven instead.

    💡 Variations

    • Savory ricotta toast - Use whole grain or sourdough bread and top with prosciutto and roasted tomatoes (visit our post for eggs Blackstone to learn how to roast tomatoes). Drizzle with pesto.
    • Apple ricotta toast - Substitute the fruit with thinly sliced apple (use gala or Fuji apples if your taste leans toward the sweet. If you prefer tart, use Granny Smith). Drizzle with caramel sauce (visit our post for caramel apple French toast to learn how to make your own easy caramel sauce).
    • Ricotta fig toast - Substitute fresh fruit with sliced fresh figs. Sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles and drizzle with honey. Divine!

    🌡️ Storage

    You can cut up the fruit a day ahead and store it in an airtight container in your refrigerator. The ricotta toast itself should be eaten the day it is assembled. Otherwise, it will become soggy in the refrigerator and will not keep well.
