Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and set aside. 
  2. Slice the baguette into ¼” slices cut on the bias. Add the baguette slices to the prepared sheet tray and brush lightly with olive oil. Toast the baguette until lightly golden in color, about 8-10 minutes. 
  3. In the meantime, add the ricotta to a blender with 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt. Pulse until fully blended and creamy. 
  4. Once cool enough to handle, top each toast with a swipe of whipped ricotta followed by a pear slice, drizzle of honey and garnished with fresh thyme. Transfer to a large platter and serve!
