4 slices bread cut on a diagonal
2 tbsp pistachios

Whip your ricotta. To your food processor or small blender, add 1 cup ricotta with 1/2 tsp salt. Blend until smooth - a couple minutes. Once smooth, add to a ziploc bag and smush into one corner. Set aside.
Grill your bread. Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Drizzle in 2 tbsp oil and spread across the pan. Drop the bread pieces in and cook until golden brown on both sides. You may need to add a bit more oil on the other side when you flip.
Once you remove the bread from the pan, add your pistachios and lightly toast for about 1 minute. Remove from heat and chop into small pieces.
Assemble. Place your toasts on your platter. Cut a small hole in the corner of your ricotta bag and to a small test strip off your toast to ensure the hole is the right size. Better to start smaller and cut more.
Squeeze ricotta onto toasts in a wiggly pattern, top with figs sliced into 8ths, drizzle with honey and sprinkle with pistachio pieces and flaky salt.
