Instructions

For the Onions:

  1. Into a cast iron skillet add a dash of olive oil and cook your onions, garlic and thyme on low-medium heat till caramelized, fragrant and tender.  This may take up to 30-40 minutes.  Stir often to avoid burning.  The slower you cook these the better. Be patient. I suggest cooking extra to have leftovers for when you make this toast again!

For the Ricotta:

  1. Place all your ingredients into a high speed blender and blend until it resembles a Ricotta like texture.  See notes.
  2. To assemble, toast your sourdough bread, spread on some of that amazing ricotta, top with some caramelized onions, a generous drizzling of honey and a fresh dusting of thyme!
  3. It's that easy.  Soo good, easy and perfect for a morning breakfast or snack!

Notes

  • Soak cashews in cold water for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.  You can also soak in hot water for 30 minutes.  Make sure to strain and rinse before transferring to the blender.
  • I would 100% recommend nutritional yeast but if you're baking with this ricotta, I recommend omiting entirely.
  • Garlic + Onion Powder are optional as they will alter the flavour entirely and make it much more savoury.
  • I like blending mine a bit more to create a very whipped, smooth like texture.
