Ricotta Toast from the Pantry

This Ricotta Toast recently went viral on Tiktok and for QUITE good reason! It’s packed with summer flavors and straightforward to throw together. Great as a snack, for breakfast, or for any meal truly.

Have you tried this ricotta toast yet? It went viral on tiktok a few weeks ago and is being praised as the “new avocado toast”. I’m honestly not sure that I would go *that* far but I do GENUINELY love it!

I’ve seen this toast served several different ways with sweet and savory options. However, I’m a huge fan of this blistered tomato version of it. But if you want to try it sweet, I recommend trying this Berry Ricotta toast from Feel Good Foodie or this Blueberry Walnut Ricotta toast!

One of the things that I like most about this Ricotta Toast is that it’s ESPECIALLY simple to throw together. It’s been my go to lazy breakfast lately (that feels elevated and kind of fancy for how unfussy it is). You need to jump on this bandwagon ASAP because it’s simply so worth the pot.

It somehow tastes like summer on a piece of toast with the blistered tomatoes and basil adding so much flavor-packed flavor.

OH and I have a truly savory VEGAN Ricotta recipe if you want to keep this dairy free. You can get that recipe HERE.

The blistered tomatoes are technically optional but highly (HIGHLY) recommended. I’m honestly not even that much of a tomato person but I still love the tomatoes on this dish. I typically only cook as many of the cherry tomatoes as I know will fit on my piece of toast and that’s it (as opposed to cooking the whole pint of tomatoes).

Genuinely excited for y’all to try this one! Let me know what you think!

The recipe

Ricotta Toast at Home

This Ricotta Toast is packed with summer flavors and a simple and satisfying breakfast!

  • 1 servings
  • Prep 5 minutes
  • Cook 10 minutes
  • Total 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • ¼ serving of blistered tomatoes
  • 1 large slice of bread (Worth keeping sourdough with this!)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • ¼ cup ricotta cheese*
  • Sprinkle of fresh basil
  • Sprinkle of sea salt and pepper
  • Sprinkle of Italian seasoning
  • Drizzle of balsamic glaze

Method

  1. 1

    If you haven’t already done so, blister your cherry tomatoes.

  2. 2

    Brush the olive oil on one side of the bread and toast until it reaches your desired level of crispiness.

  3. 3

    Spread the ricotta onto the olive oil side of the toast. Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

  4. 4

    Top with the blistered tomatoes, basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. ENJOY!

Cook notes

*the amount of ricotta kind of depends on the side of your bread slices. If you have larger slices then 1/4 cup is dependable. If you have smaller pieces of toast then you may only want 2 tablespoons. HERE is my vegan ricotta recipe for those that are dairy free
