Fancy a taste of summer on toast? Here's a simple recipe full of flavor: toast with roasted apricots, arugula, and burrata. Between the tender, honey-and-rosemary-caramelized fruit, the peppery freshness of the arugula, and the creaminess of the burrata, each bite is a real treat. Start with a good slice of toasted bread, add a drizzle of olive oil and a touch of chili pepper if you like, and you have a quick meal that's perfect for a light lunch. You can also try it with peaches or figs, depending on the season and your mood ;)

FAQ ❓

What type of bread should I choose?

Farmhouse bread, sourdough bread, or a slice of multigrain bread are ideal for this type of open-faced sandwich. Their dense crumb and crisp crust hold up well to the moisture from the toppings while adding a satisfying chew.

Can roasted apricots be prepared in advance?

Yes, roasted apricots can be cooked a few hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Remember to take them out 10 to 15 minutes before serving, or to warm them slightly to release all their aromas.

What to serve with apricot and burrata toast?

It's perfect on its own for a light meal, but can also be served with a salad of baby greens, a tomato gazpacho, or a cold almond soup for a well-balanced summer menu.

What other fruits can be used instead of apricots?

Peaches, fresh figs, plums, or even roasted grapes are excellent alternatives. They go very well with burrata and also provide a sweet-savory balance.

Can this open-faced sandwich be made vegan?

Yes, simply replace the burrata with a creamy plant-based alternative made with cashews or soy, and use agave syrup instead of honey.
