Directions
- In a food processor, combine ricotta, goat cheese, and garlic. Blend well, and season with salt and pepper.
- Halve the apricots and discard pits. Place in a bowl cut side up, lightly drizzle with olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat grill to medium and oil grilling rack with olive oil. Place fruit cut side down and grill for about 3 minutes on each side. Grill marks should appear. Remove and allow to cool, then cut apricots in half again.
- Slice bread, drizzle with olive oil, and grill (or toast in the oven) until browned and crispy.
- Spread the ricotta mixture liberally onto the toast, top with as many quarters of apricot that seem manageable, and drizzle with olive oil. Top with sea salt, basil, and mint.
