Ingredients
Toast
- 2 slices bread
Eggs
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Toppings
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chili flakes or herbs (optional)
Instructions
- Toast the bread: Toast the bread slices until they turn golden brown and crispy to create a sturdy base for the toppings.
- Spread ricotta cheese: Evenly spread half a cup of creamy ricotta cheese over each slice of toasted bread, ensuring smooth coverage.
- Cook the eggs: Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the eggs to your preferred doneness — sunny side up, over easy, or scrambled.
- Assemble the toast: Carefully place the cooked eggs on top of the ricotta-covered toast slices.
- Season and garnish: Sprinkle salt, pepper, and optionally chili flakes or fresh herbs over the eggs to add flavor and a touch of heat if desired.
- Serve immediately: Serve the egg and ricotta toast right away to enjoy the creamy, warm, and crisp combination at its best.
Notes
- Use sourdough or whole-grain bread for best results, adding texture and flavor.
- Add honey on top for a delightful sweet twist that pairs well with ricotta.
- Top with sliced avocado or fresh tomatoes for extra nutrition and taste variety.
