This Strawberry Peach Bruschetta recipe combines the sweetness of ripe strawberries and peaches with the savory notes of fresh mint and basil finished off with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. It’s a super easy and simple dish that celebrates some of summer's best produce.
Olive oil, for brushing
10 -12 fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
2 fresh medium peaches, peeled and diced
juice of half a small lemon
zest of a small lemon
1/4 cup fresh mint, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
4 oz goat cheese, softened
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush both sides with olive oil. Bake for about 7-8 minutes, or until the slices are golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let them cool.
In a medium bowl, combine the diced strawberries and peaches. Add the lemon juice, zest, and finely chopped mint and basil, season with a pinch of sea salt to enhance the flavor. Gently mix until everything is well combined.
Spread some of the goat cheese onto each toasted baguette slice. Top with 1 tablespoon of the strawberry and peach mixture, making sure to drain any liquid and evenly distribute the fruit.
Lightly drizzle the assembled bruschetta with a bit of honey and balsamic glaze. Garnish with some of the chopped mint and basil and serve immediately.
