Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 4 slices sourdough bread
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Toppings

  • 1 cup fresh ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for toasting the bread.
  2. Prepare the bread: Place the sourdough slices on a baking sheet and brush each slice lightly with olive oil to enhance browning and flavor.
  3. Bake the bread: Bake the slices for 10-12 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy to provide a sturdy base for the toppings.
  4. Add ricotta: Once the toast is warm, spread a generous layer of fresh ricotta cheese on each slice to create a creamy texture contrast.
  5. Top with pomegranate and honey: Sprinkle pomegranate seeds evenly over the ricotta and drizzle honey on top to add natural sweetness and a burst of flavor.
  6. Garnish and serve: Finish by garnishing with chopped fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma and taste, then serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • For an extra crunch, you can lightly toast the pomegranate seeds before adding them.
  • Substitute sourdough with whole-grain or gluten-free bread for dietary preferences.
  • Use raw honey or maple syrup as alternatives depending on sweetness preference and dietary needs.
  • Serve immediately to prevent the toast from becoming soggy.
  • This dish pairs well with a cup of green tea or freshly brewed coffee.
