🧀 Ingredients:
- 1 loaf of sourdough or French baguette, sliced
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ⅓ cup grated Pecorino cheese
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 4 ounces prosciutto
- 8 ounces burrata cheese, at room temperature
- 2 ripe peaches, sliced
- Hot honey, for drizzling
- Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
🔥 Instructions:
1. Prepare the Crostini Base
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the baguette or sourdough slices on a baking sheet. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, grated garlic, Parmesan, Pecorino, and thyme leaves. Brush this mixture evenly over each slice of bread.
2. Toast to Perfection
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crisp. Your kitchen will smell incredible!
3. Assemble the Magic
Let the crostini cool slightly, then gently tear the burrata and spoon it over each slice. Top with a piece of prosciutto and a few peach slices.
4. Add the Finishing Touch
Drizzle everything with hot honey — this adds a gorgeous glaze and just the right amount of heat. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for that final pop of flavor and color.
5. Serve and Enjoy!
Serve immediately while the crostini are still slightly warm. Pair with a chilled glass of white wine or prosecco for the ultimate summer treat.
💡 Tips for the Best Crostini:
- Use ripe but firm peaches for the best texture and sweetness.
- You can grill the peaches for a smoky flavor twist.
- If you can’t find burrata, use fresh mozzarella with a drizzle of cream for a similar effect.
- Not a fan of spicy? Swap hot honey for a light drizzle of regular honey or balsamic glaze.
