This salted fig and honey ricotta toast recipe is the perfect breakfast when you want something totally decadent but also want it in 5 minutes. This beautiful toast takes advantage of late summer figs which are sweet and in season, and is loaded on creamy and sweet ricotta.

Figs have always been one of my favorite fruits. When I lived in California I loved getting them off the trees, and seeing them in the local markets. I enjoy eating them raw most of the time, but decided to get a little fancy and serve them with ricotta and honey. The result? A breakfast fit for a queen.

What’s In This Honey Ricotta and Fig Toast Recipe?

Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

I used Black Mission Figs, which are in season in the late summer and early fall.

Sandwich Bread – use a gluten free bread if you can’t eat wheat. I like to make my own bread, and they have some great artisan bread gluten free mixes out there too!
Ricotta Cheese – this creamy and irresistible ricotta cheese is a fantastic base layer for this toast! I’ll also include a vegan version in the recipe card below if you don’t eat dairy… but if you DO eat dairy I’d highly recommend this delicious whole milk ricotta.
Figs
Walnuts
Honey
Pink Himalayan Sea Salt: I like to use a pink Himalayan Sea Salt in my kitchen.
