πŸ›’ Ingredients

For the Crispy Sourdough:

  • 8 slices sourdough bread
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp flaky sea salt

For the Whipped Burrata:

  • 8 oz burrata cheese
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

For the Roasted Apricot Topping:

  • 6 fresh apricots, halved and pitted
  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup roasted pistachios, chopped

For the Hot Honey Thyme Drizzle:

  • 3 tbsp hot honey
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice

Optional Garnishes:

  • Fresh thyme sprigs
  • Fresh lemon zest
  • Extra chopped roasted pistachios

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions

1. Toast the Sourdough

Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Arrange the sourdough slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with extra-virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder and flaky sea salt.

Bake for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the bread is crisp and golden brown.

2. Roast the Apricots

Place the apricot halves cut-side up on a separate baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with the brown sugar.

Roast for 12–15 minutes, or until the apricots are tender, juicy, and lightly caramelized.

3. Make the Whipped Burrata

In a food processor or blender, combine the burrata, heavy cream, and freshly cracked black pepper. Blend until smooth, creamy, and spreadable.

4. Prepare the Hot Honey Thyme Drizzle

In a small saucepan over low heat, gently warm the hot honey with the fresh thyme leaves and lemon juice for 1–2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Do not allow the mixture to boil.

5. Assemble the Toasts

Spread a generous layer of whipped burrata over each toasted sourdough slice. Top with the roasted apricot halves, then sprinkle with the chopped roasted pistachios.

Drizzle each toast generously with the warm hot honey thyme mixture.

6. Garnish and Serve

Finish with fresh thyme sprigs, a little fresh lemon zest, and extra chopped pistachios for added flavor and texture.

Serve immediately while the sourdough is crisp and the apricots are warm.
