- 10 ounces cherry tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (sliced)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt (divided)
- 1 16 -ounce container ricotta
- 2 tablespoons chopped basil (for garnish)
- Vegetables (Crackers, Baguette, or Crostini, for serving)
Steps
Preheat the oven to 425° F. Add the tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and ¼ teaspoon of salt to a baking dish. Toss well to coat everything in the olive oil.
Transfer the baking dish to the oven and roast until the tomatoes are bursting, about 15 minutes. Move the baking dish to the highest rack in the oven and broil on high for 1-2 minutes to brown the tomatoes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
In the meantime, add the ricotta and remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt to a food processor. Process until completely smooth, about 30 seconds.
Transfer the whipped ricotta to a shallow bowl and smooth it into an even layer. Top with the roasted tomatoes and garlic. Garnish with chopped basil. Serve with vegetables, crackers, baguette, or crostini.
