Instructions
Toast the Baguette
Preheat your broiler to high. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush each one lightly with olive oil. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and crispy, watching carefully to avoid burning.
Whip the Ricotta
Place the ricotta in a small bowl and stir vigorously with a fork or spoon for about 1 minute until it becomes lighter and smoother in texture. This step makes it much easier to spread.
Assemble the Crostini
Spread a generous tablespoon of whipped ricotta onto each toasted baguette slice and spread it evenly to the edges. Work quickly while the bread is still warm for best results.
Add Toppings and Serve
Drizzle honey generously over each crostini, scatter the chopped toasted walnuts on top, and finish each one with a small pinch of flaky sea salt. Arrange on a plate and serve immediately.
