This peach toast with whipped ricotta—crusty, toasted bread spread with creamy whipped ricotta, topped with juicy fresh peaches and basil, and drizzled with balsamic glaze—is simply perfect. Try it for breakfast, lunch, or a snack.

Cook’s Note
Use your favorite crusty bread. I like to whip up a batch of ricotta on the weekend and keep it in the fridge for a quick breakfast or snack.
