👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Crostini: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides lightly with olive oil. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.

Step 2

Make the Ricotta Topping: In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, honey, lemon zest, and fresh thyme leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Assemble the Crostini: Once the crostini are baked and cooled slightly, generously spread the ricotta mixture on each slice.

Step 4

Add Finishing Touches: Drizzle a little extra honey over the ricotta on each crostini. If you like, add a drizzle of balsamic glaze for an additional layer of flavor.

Step 5

Serve: Arrange the crostini on a platter and serve immediately, garnished with a few extra thyme leaves if desired.
