Ingredients
  • 4 oz cream cheese; softened
  • 4 oz feta cheese; room temperature
  • 4 peaches; halved, pit removed
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil +/-
  • 1 loaf / 2 mini-loaves baguette
  • Balsamic reduction
  • 10-15 mint leaves; ribbon cut/chopped
Instructions
  1. Bring both the cream cheese and feta to room temperature.
  2. Using a hand mixer or with a wooden spoon, whip/mix the cheeses together.

  4. Set out the balsamic reduction, allowing to warm to room temperature if made beforehand.
  5. Heat grill.
  6. Clean and halve the peaches, removing the pit.
  7. Score each half, two lines one direction and then rotate and slice another two lines, intersecting the first two lines.
  8. Slice the bread on the diagonal to desired thickness.
  9. Pour the olive oil in a bowl and brush each side of the baguette slices with the oil.
  10. Once the grill is hot, lower flame to medium and brush the grates with oil to prevent sticking.
