This blueberry lemon ricotta toast is light, creamy, sweet, tangy, and fancy enough to feel like you got it from a chic brunch café — but it takes less than 10 minutes to make.

It’s a perfect breakfast or midday snack, packed with protein from ricotta, antioxidants from blueberries, and serious main character energy from that citrus zing.

🛒 Ingredients (1–2 servings)

• 1 thick slice of sourdough or multigrain bread

• 1/3 cup whole milk ricotta

• 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

• 1 tsp maple syrup or honey

• 1/2 tsp lemon zest

• Optional: pinch of cinnamon, chopped mint, chia seeds

🍳 How to Make It

1. Toast your bread until golden and crisp.

2. Whip the ricotta in a small bowl (you can add a dash of vanilla or lemon juice if you like).

3. Make a quick blueberry topping: heat blueberries in a pan over medium heat with a splash of water and a drizzle of maple syrup until they start to burst. Takes ~3 minutes.

4. Assemble: Spread ricotta on the toast, spoon the warm blueberries over it, and finish with lemon zest and honey.

✨ Optional Upgrades
