Ricotta Toast with Pancetta and Peaches

Sharing is caring!

Move over avocado toast, it’s all about ricotta toast these days!

Pancetta peach ricotta toasts can go from breakfast to appetizer in a snap!

These are the perfect balance of flavors thanks to the subtle saltiness of pancetta, creamy ricotta, sweet honey, and summer peaches or nectarines.

We’re big fans of peaches because we have a rental property in Fredericksburg, Texas, which is famous for their peach orchids!

Or whip up an appetizer platter with ricotta toast using smaller baguette pieces for a bite sized entertaining option.

What is ricotta?

The ricotta cheese in this recipe is a type of fresh white cheese made from whey (a liquid byproduct of milk).

It originated from Italy but has spread to the rest of Europe as well as North America!

Ricotta is often used in pastas, desserts, lasagna or ravioli but ricotta toast takes ricotta to the breakfast table.
