Recipe type: Appetizer
Serves: 20-25 pieces
- 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
- Bring both the cream cheese and feta to room temperature.
- Using a hand mixer or with a wooden spoon, whip/mix the cheeses together.
- Cover and chill until 30 minutes before ready to use.
- Set out the balsamic reduction, allowing to warm to room temperature if made beforehand.
- Heat grill.
- Clean and halve the peaches, removing the pit.
- Score each half, two lines one direction and then rotate and slice another two lines, intersecting the first two lines.
- Slice the bread on the diagonal to desired thickness.
- Pour the olive oil in a bowl and brush each side of the baguette slices with the oil.
- Once the grill is hot, lower flame to medium and brush the grates with oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the peaches flesh side down on the grill; cook for about 5 minutes, and flip, cooking an additional 5 minutes; remove and set aside.
- Place the bread on the grill and cook for 2 minutes, flip, and cook another 2 minutes; remove and set aside.
- Ribbon cut or chop fresh mint.
- Generously spread the creamy feta over one side of the grilled baguette.
- Slice each peach halve into 4-6 slices (depending on how large the peaches are.) Removing the skin is optional.
- Place a peach slice over the creamy feta.
- Drizzle with balsamic reduction.
- Garnish with fresh mint.
- Enjoy!
