Instructions

Slice baguette into crostini sized slices and set on baking sheet. Mix oil with 1 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of dried herbs and stir together. Using a pastry brush, dress your bread slices with oil on both sides and place in the oven at 300 degrees for 10 minutes. (oven times may vary)
Add ricotta to a mixing bowl and add salt, pepper, thyme (save a pinch to sprinkle on top) and olive oil. Stir until combined and set aside.
