Ingredients
  

  • 4 ripe peaches diced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh mint chopped (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1 French baguette sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil.
  3. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, lemon juice, honey, vanilla extract, salt, and pepper. Gently toss to coat and set aside to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, and chopped mint until smooth and creamy.
  6. Once the baguette slices are toasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
  7. Spread a generous layer of the whipped ricotta on each slice.
  8. Top the ricotta with the marinated peach mixture, ensuring an even distribution of peaches on each bruschetta.
  9. Garnish with additional mint leaves.
  10. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
