Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400F. Toss the blueberries with the oil, honey and za’atar. Place on a baking sheet and roast until the blueberries begin to pop, about 8 minutes. Toss halfway through cooking.

Step 2
While the blueberries roast prepare the honey-cashew spread. Place all the ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth and the texture resembles a full fat ricotta cheese- stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. Taste test and adjust flavors as necessary.

Step 3
To serve spread each slice of toasted bread with the cashew spread and top with roasted blueberries. Sprinkle with walnuts, additional za’atar, a pinch of sea salt, and a drizzle of more honey. Serve warm or at room temperature.
