Ingredients

Reduced-fat ricotta cheese

cup(s), (80g)

Fresh blueberries

cup(s), (100g) or thawed frozen

Banana(s)

2 medium, halved lengthways

Brioche

2 piece(s), (2x 50g slices)

Honey

2 tsp

Hazelnuts

10 piece(s), coarsely chopped

Instructions

  1. Place ricotta in a bowl. Stir through half the blueberries, pressing slightly with back of spoon to create a marbled effect.
  2. Preheat a chargrill or barbecue over medium heat. Cook banana for 2–3 minutes each side or until golden and lightly charred. Halfway through cooking, add brioche and cook for 1–2 minutes each side or until golden and lightly charred.
  3. Top brioche with banana and ricotta mixture. Drizzle with honey and serve sprinkled with hazelnuts and remaining blueberries.

Notes

TIP: You can use 2 x 35g slices wholemeal bread instead of brioche.Fresh ricotta cheese is sold in the deli section of the supermarket and is firmer than the smooth ricotta cheese sold in tubs.
