1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, more for brushing
2 medium peaches, about 6 ounces, pitted and sliced 1/4-inch thick

Peach, Prosciutto & Ricotta Crostini Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by ngaldi

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 slices ciabatta bread
1 ripe peach
1 tablespoon fresh ricotta (preferably sheep's milk)
Freshly ground black pepper
4 thin slices prosciutto
Honey

Steps:

  • Grill bread slices. Halve, pit, and thinly slice peach. Spoon about 1 tablespoon ricotta onto each toast and sprinkle with ground pepper. Tear prosciutto into feathery pieces and drape a few slices over ricotta on each. Drizzle each with honey and top with 2 peach slices.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful peaches. The better the peaches, the better the crostini will be.
  • Use high-quality prosciutto. Look for prosciutto that is thinly sliced and has a deep red color.
  • Make sure the ricotta cheese is fresh. Fresh ricotta cheese will be smooth and creamy, not grainy or watery.
  • Use a good-quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for this recipe.
  • Don't overcrowd the crostini. You should be able to fit about 4 crostini on a baking sheet.
  • Serve the crostini immediately. They are best when they are hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Peach prosciutto ricotta crostini are a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be assembled in minutes. The combination of sweet peaches, salty prosciutto, and creamy ricotta cheese is irresistible. These crostini are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
