Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch slices and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Toast the bread in the oven for about 5-7 minutes or until lightly golden.
While the bread is toasting, mix the ricotta cheese with a drizzle of honey and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the ricotta mixture on each toasted slice of bread.
Top with fresh sliced strawberries.
Drizzle with balsamic glaze and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

For best results, use day-old bread for sturdier toast and avoid pre-assembling to maintain texture.
