- 1 quarter cup Sliced almonds
- 2 tablespoons Fresh mint leaves
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sliced almonds until lightly golden and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Spread a generous spoonful of ricotta cheese onto each toasted baguette slice.
Top each bruschetta with a few blackberries, pressing them gently into the ricotta.
Drizzle each slice with honey and sprinkle with toasted almonds.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves, a pinch of salt, and a small pinch of black pepper for added flavor.
