Ingredients
- 3 ounces pancetta, diced
- 1/4 cup Fustini's Basil Crush olive oil, plus more for brushing
- 3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped, plus more for garnish
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- pinch of salt
- l large French baguette, sliced into rounds
- 3 peaches, cut in half, pits removed
- 1 ball burrata cheese
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat your grill to the highest setting. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add the diced pancetta. Cook, stirring often, until the pancetta is crisp and the fat has rendered. Remove the pancetta with a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel to drain any excess grease.
- In a bowl stir together the olive oil, fresh basil, garlic and salt until combined. Slice the baguette into rounds and drizzle with olive oil. Place the slices on a baking sheet to easily take them out to the grill. Brush peaches with olive oil and sprinkle on salt and pepper. Place them on a baking sheet too!
- Take everything out to the grill. Put the peaches on first, cut-side down, for about 4 to 5 minutes. You can grill the uncut side for 1 to 2 minutes if you wish. While the peaches are on the grill, place the bread slices on the grill. They will only need 1 to 2 minutes on the grill, so you can start flipping them as soon as every slice gets on the grill! Transfer the grilled bread and peaches back to the baking sheet.
- Slice the peaches once they are cool enough to touch. To assemble the crostini, pull apart the burrata and place it on each slice of toast. Top with a grilled peach slice. Sprinkle on the pancetta. Garnish with fresh basil. Serve immediately.
