Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
Toppings
- 2 ripe peaches, pitted and thinly sliced
- 4 oz goat cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as basil or mint), finely chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Bread: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Toast them for about 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and crisp.
- Assemble the Bruschetta: Spread a generous amount of softened goat cheese evenly on each toasted bread slice. Top the cheese with thin slices of fresh peaches.
- Finish and Serve: Drizzle honey over each bruschetta and sprinkle the chopped fresh herbs on top. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of warm toasts and fresh toppings.
Notes
- You can substitute fresh peaches with nectarines or apricots for a different flavor.
- For a crunchier texture, lightly brush the baguette slices with olive oil before toasting.
- If goat cheese is too strong, cream cheese or ricotta can be used as a milder alternative.
- This recipe is best served fresh to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
