Description
A delightful appetizer featuring creamy burrata cheese, crispy prosciutto, and fresh peaches on toasted bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1loaf of sourdough or French baguette, sliced
- ⅓ cupgrated Parmesan cheese
- ⅓ cupgrated Pecorino cheese
- 1clove garlic, grated
- 2 tablespoonsfresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoonsmelted butter
- 4 ouncesprosciutto
- 8 ouncesburrata cheese, at room temperature
- 2peaches, sliced
- Hot honey (for drizzling)
- Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- On a baking sheet, mix together the Parmesan, Pecorino, grated garlic, fresh thyme, melted butter, and a pinch of black pepper. Spread this mixture evenly across the sheet.
- Place the sliced baguette over the cheesy mixture, then brush the tops of the bread with additional melted butter. Arrange the prosciutto slices on top of or around the bread.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crispy and the prosciutto has crisped up nicely.
- Transfer the cheesy bread to a serving platter or board. Tear the burrata and spread it over the bread. Top with fresh peach slices, crispy prosciutto, and basil leaves.
- Drizzle the crostini with hot honey to add a sweet and spicy kick. These crostini are delicious when served warm, but they’re equally great at room temperature.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, omit the prosciutto.
Hot honey can be adjusted to taste for sweetness and spiciness.
