Steps

  1. Slightly toast two slices of whole wheat bread before assembling to ensure the sandwich doesn't get soggy.

  2. On one slice of the slightly toasted bread, spread the strained ricotta cheese.

  3. Drizzle the honey over the ricotta.

  4. Sprinkle a pinch of chili pepper flakes over the honey and ricotta.

  5. Add the blackberry jam on top of the other ingredients.

  6. Top with the second slice of toasted bread to close the sandwich.

  7. Spray both sides of the sandwich with oil.

  8. Place the sandwich in the air fryer and cook at 375°F (190 °C) (190°C (375 °F)) for 5 minutes, flipping the sandwich halfway through the cooking time.

  9. Take out of the air fryer and enjoy!

Notes

Straining the ricotta is important to prevent the bread from becoming soggy. Pre-toasting the bread slightly before adding the fillings is a key tip for the best texture.
