Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place baguette slices on a large baking sheet, brush with 4 tablespoons of olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Place baking sheet on middle oven rack and bake for about 5 minutes or until light brown, turning once. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and set aside.
In a medium bowl, stir together remaining Basil olive oil, olives, cherries, peppers, shallot, lime zest and lime juice. To assemble, spread goat cheese on a toasted baguette slice. Top with the olive-cherry mixture and garnish with prosciutto. Drizzle with Traverse City Cherry balsamic before serving.
