Ingredients

Sourdough or French Baguette
Burrata Cheese
Fresh Peaches
Prosciutto
Fresh Basil Leaves
Garlic (optional)
Grated Parmesan or Pecorino Cheese (optional)
Olive Oil (optional)
Hot Honey or Balsamic Glaze (optional)
Fresh Thyme (optional)


Instructions

1. Prepare the ingredients by slicing sourdough or baguette into 1/2-inch slices and brushing with olive oil. Slice peaches into wedges and toss them with olive oil and a pinch of kosher salt. Drain burrata and set aside at room temperature.
2. Toast the bread in a preheated oven at 400Β°F for 8-10 minutes until golden and crispy. Optionally, rub each slice with a garlic clove for added flavor.
3. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and grill peach wedges for 1-2 minutes on each side until caramelized and grill marks appear.
4. Spread or spoon a generous layer of burrata cheese onto each toasted bread slice.
5. Add a slice or two of grilled peach and a piece of thinly sliced prosciutto onto each crostini.
6. Top with a fresh basil leaf for added flavor and color.
7. Drizzle with hot honey, balsamic glaze, or basil-infused olive oil for a finishing touch.
8. Arrange the crostini on a platter and serve immediately. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

Notes

1. Choose fresh and high-quality ingredients like ripe peaches, creamy burrata, and crusty bread for the best flavor and texture.
2. Grill the peaches and toast the bread just before serving to maintain the perfect balance of crispness and freshness.
3. Experiment with variations like swapping prosciutto for roasted vegetables or trying different drizzles such as honey or balsamic glaze.
