Bread
- 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
Toppings
- 2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced
- 4 oz goat cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as basil or mint), chopped
Instructions
- Toast the Bread: Preheat a grill pan or oven broiler. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet or grill pan and toast them for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Remove and let cool slightly.
- Assemble the Bruschetta: Spread a generous layer of softened goat cheese on each toasted baguette slice. Top the goat cheese with thin slices of ripe peach, arranging them neatly.
- Finish with Honey and Herbs: Drizzle each peach-topped slice with honey. Sprinkle freshly chopped herbs over the top for added color and freshness. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor contrast.
- Fresh herbs like basil, mint, or thyme work beautifully in this recipe.
- This appetizer can be prepped ahead by toasting the bread and assembling just before serving.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute goat cheese with a vegan cheese spread.
- If peaches are out of season, nectarines or apricots can be used as alternatives.
