- 36 red grapes washed and dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup ricotta cheese drained
- 2 tablespoon honey
- fresh thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut the grapes in half, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season grapes with olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Roast the grapes in the oven for approximately 30 minutes, until they begin to wrinkle and start to release their juices.
- Prepare the bread toasts by baking, grilling or frying them.
- While grapes are roasting, add the ricotta to a bowl and season with salt. With an electric mixer, whip the ricotta until it is creamy and smooth, a few minutes.
- Spread the ricotta on the bread. Top with 6 grape halves (or 3 whole grapes).
- Drizzle with honey and top with fresh thyme. Serve immediately!
Notes
- Depending on your preference, you can roast the grapes whole, or cut them in half as described
