Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup olive oil
1 baguette, sliced into 40 (1/4-inch) thick slices
1 cup peeled and cooked fava beans
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 lemon, juiced
2 tbsp grated parmesan
salt and pepper
1 cup fresh morel mushrooms, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rings (you may substitute any mushrooms available)
2 tbsp minced shallots
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup fresh ricotta

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Using a pastry brush, brush a cookie sheet with oil. Place the sliced pieces of baguette on the cookie sheet and lightly brush each piece with oil. Bake until golden brown, approximately 6 minutes.
With a mortar-and-pestle or a food processor, puree the fava beans with extra-virgin olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and Parmesan. Season the mixture with salt and pepper, to taste.
In a skillet on high heat, saute the mushrooms in 2 tablespoons olive oil and shallots until tender. Season the mixture with salt and pepper, to taste.
Spread a spoonful of the fava puree on each slice of baguette and then top with a small amount ricotta then garnish with a piece of cooked morel.
