One of our favourite evergreen trends is ricotta toast, slathering creamy ricotta on fancy bread and topping with anything your heart desires. Like Avocado Toast, Ricotta Toast is dead-easy to make, but can be a real showstopper next time you have friends over for brunch.

Ricotta Toast is great because you can turn it into either a sweet or savoury breakfast, so you can pick and choose your flavours depending on what mood you wake up in on a particular day.

Quick, simple and full of flavour, our ricotta toast is topped with hot honey and prosciutto.
