Ingredients
  

2 ripe peaches, sliced into wedges

1 ball of fresh burrata cheese

4 slices of crusty sourdough bread

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Fresh basil leaves, torn into pieces

Sea salt, to taste

Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Toast the Bread: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the sourdough slices on a baking sheet, brushing one side lightly with the extra virgin olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges become golden brown and crispy to the touch. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

    Prepare the Peaches: While the bread is toasting, rinse the peaches under cool water and slice them into even wedges. For an enhanced flavor, consider lightly tossing the peach slices in a small bowl with a pinch of sea salt and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

      Assemble the Toast: Once the bread is perfectly toasted, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for about a minute. Next, gently tear apart the burrata cheese using a fork or your fingers, making sure to retain its creamy texture. Place a generous dollop of burrata on each slice of toasted sourdough.

        Add the Peaches: Layer the peach wedges artfully over the burrata. For an appealing presentation, slightly overlap the peach slices, showcasing their vibrant colors.

          Finish with Garnishes: Drizzle any remaining balsamic glaze over the assembled toast, ensuring a beautiful shimmer. Sprinkle freshly cracked black pepper and the torn basil leaves on top to add both flavor and a burst of color to the dish.

            Serve Immediately: Transfer the assembled Peach & Burrata Toast onto a serving platter or individual plates. Serve right away and enjoy this delightful appetizer or light meal while the toast is still warm!
