Celebrate the late summer months with a unique "ode" to peaches. This peach crostini recipe offers a fun appetizer that is both quick and easy, with flavors that remind us of picnics in the park while looking elegant enough to grace a fancy dinner party.

Ingredients

For the crostini

1/2 of a baguette (10 - 12 slices, cut about 1/4-inch thick)
2 tbsp EVOO
pinch of black pepper

For the topping

1 cup fresh peaches, diced
2 oz. plain goat cheese
1 tbsp honey
1 1/2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
pinch of coarse sea salt

Instructions

For the crostini

Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Using a brush, coat each baguette slice with olive oil until surface area is completely covered. Sprinkle with a hint of black pepper.
Place no a nonstick baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until the bread turns a light golden brown.

For the topping and assembly

While crostini bakes, add diced peaches and honey to a small saucepan and heat through over medium heat. This should take approximately the same length of time as the crostini takes to bake, about 10 minutes.
Remove crostini from oven and peach-honey mixture from heat. Allow crostini to cool for a few minutes.
When ready, spread goat cheese on each slice. Top with peach-honey mixture and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and pinch of coarse sea salt. Serve and enjoy immediately!
