- 1 loaf crusty bread
- Olive oil or butter, for brushing on bread
- Sea salt
- 5 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
- Canola or grapeseed oil, for brushing on peaches
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 12 ounces burrata cheese
- 1/3 cup chopped pistachios
- Fresh mint, for garnish
- Slice the bread into 3/4″ rounds and brush both sides with olive oil or melted butter.
- Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat; grill bread slices until lightly toasted with grill marks, about 2–3 minutes per side. Season with sea salt and set aside.
- Brush the cut sides of the peach halves with oil and grill cut-side down until caramelized, about 4 minutes; let cool slightly and slice.
- To assemble each crostini, top a slice of grilled bread with a piece of burrata, a few peach slices, drizzle with honey, then sprinkle with chopped pistachios and fresh mint.
Notes
- Use a good-quality, crusty Italian or French loaf for best texture.
- If you don’t have an outdoor grill, use a stovetop grill pan.
- Peaches can be grilled up to 2 hours ahead and kept at room temperature.
- Guests can assemble their own crostini at the table for a fun presentation.
