Print Recipe

A quick and easy summer appetizer featuring grilled peaches, salty prosciutto, creamy burrata, and toasted rustic bread, perfect for entertaining and light celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 ripe fresh peaches (about 600g or 1.3 lbs), halved or cut into thick wedges, pits removed
  • Thinly sliced prosciutto (San Daniele recommended)
  • Fresh burrata cheese, torn or sliced
  • Baguette or rustic sourdough bread, sliced 1/2 inch thick
  • Extra virgin olive oil, for brushing and drizzling
  • Fresh basil leaves, torn
  • Balsamic glaze (optional), for drizzling
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Rinse and pat dry peaches. Cut into halves or thick wedges, removing pits.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C). Brush grill grates or pan with oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Place peach halves cut-side down on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes until char marks appear and peaches soften slightly. Flip and grill for another 2 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  4. Slice baguette or sourdough loaf into 1/2-inch slices. Brush each slice lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
  5. Toast bread slices on the grill or grill pan for 1-2 minutes per side until crisp and golden but not burnt. Remove and set aside.
  6. Tear or slice burrata and spread or place on toasted bread slices. Top each with a grilled peach slice and a strip of prosciutto.
  7. Tear fresh basil leaves and scatter over bruschetta.
  8. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze if using. Sprinkle salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  9. Serve immediately while bread is crisp and peaches are warm and juicy.

Notes

Let burrata sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before assembling for best creaminess. Watch peaches closely while grilling to avoid mushiness. Brush bread with olive oil before toasting for crispness and flavor. Serve immediately to prevent soggy bread. For dairy-free, substitute burrata with tofu-based or nut-based cheese alternatives. For gluten-free, use gluten-free baguette or grilled polenta slices.
