Ingredients
Directions
1) Whip the ricotta and cream cheese until smooth with an electric mixer. Stir in orange zest.2) In a shallow wide bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla and salt. Spread the almonds out on a plate.
3) Heat a skillet over medium heat. Melt half the butter in the skillet. Dip half the bread slices in the egg mixture, letting it soak in for about five seconds on each side. Place both sides of the bread in the almonds, pressing them into the side. Put the bread in the melted butter and grill until browned, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Melt the rest of the butter in the skillet and repeat with remaining bread slices.
4) Top each slice with a dollop of filling mixture and finish off with a little apricot jam.
