Peach Crostini
Delicious peach crostini topped with goat cheese, peaches, honey, and thyme is the late summer appetizer that harnesses delicate flavors and creates an eye-catching, tasty treat!
Ingredients
- ½ baguette 10 - 12 slices, cut about ¼-inch thick
- 1 cup peaches, diced approx. 1 ½ medium peaches
- 2 ounces plain goat cheese
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons EVOO
- 1½ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves optional
- pinch black pepper
- pinch coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF.
- Using a brush, coat each crostini with olive oil until surface area is completely covered. Sprinkle with a hint of black pepper.
- Place on baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the bread turns a light golden brown.
- While crostini bakes, add diced peaches and honey to a small saucepan and heat through over medium heat. This should take approximately the same length of time as the crostini (10 minutes).
- Remove crostini from oven and peach-honey mixture from heat. Allow crostini to cool for a few minutes.
- When ready, spread goat cheese on each slice. Top with peach-honey mixture and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and a pinch of coarse sea salt. Serve and enjoy immediately.
Notes
If you have leftover peaches, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator (up to a few days) and reheat as a topping for vanilla ice cream. The flavor is comparable to peach cobbler, just without the extra carbs!
