Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole-milk ricotta
• 8 slices Baguette
• 2 tbsp Hot honey
• 1 tsp Fresh thyme
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1/2 Lemon

Steps

1. Heat the oven to 400°F.
2. Brush the baguette slices lightly with olive oil on both sides and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet.
3. Toast 8 to 10 minutes, flipping once halfway, until golden at the edges and crisp.
4. Meanwhile, add the ricotta to a food processor and blend for 1 full minute until completely smooth and fluffy. Beginner tip: this transforms grainy ricotta into something cloudlike, don’t skip the full minute.
5. Season the whipped ricotta with salt and a squeeze of lemon juice, then taste. It should be bright, not flat.
6. Spread the whipped ricotta generously onto the warm toasts.
7. Drizzle each with hot honey, scatter a few thyme leaves over the top, and serve immediately while the toast is still warm.
