Peach, Tomato and Ricotta Crostini

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This combination of creamy ricotta cheese, sweet peaches and tangy tomatoes is perfection!

I use a delicious artisanal sourdough bread, oil it and lightly grill it.  

It’s a delicious summer appetizer or a light lunch or even breakfast! And feel free to amp this up with a thin slice of prosciutto – yum!!  Be sure to add the coarse pepper – it really balances the flavours.  Enjoy!!
