Burrata Crostini with Caramelized Peach & Fig Jam – Step by Step

With ingredients ready and prep done, it’s time to assemble your show-stopping appetizer. While we focus on the crostini today, remember this is just the start of a full menu that includes Pineapple Quinoa, Honey Garlic Ginger Glazed Green Beans, Baked Halibut with Coconut Jalapeño Lime Sauce, and Lemon Mascarpone Mousse — a complete dining experience.

Ingredients (serves 4–6):

• 1 baguette, sliced and lightly toasted

• 8 oz burrata cheese

• 2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced

• 2 tbsp fig jam

• 1 tsp honey

• Pinch of garlic powder

• Fresh basil leaves

• Extra-virgin olive oil

• Flaky sea salt

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Burrata Spread: Gently smash burrata with a fork. Stir in garlic powder and drizzle in honey until creamy and smooth.

2. Caramelize the Peaches: Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Sauté peach slices 2–3 minutes per side until lightly caramelized. Remove and let cool slightly.

3. Toast Crostini: Brush baguette slices with olive oil and toast until golden brown.

4. Assemble Crostini: Spread a thin layer of fig jam on each crostini. Smear a generous portion of burrata mixture on top. Place a caramelized peach slice on each crostini.

5. Garnish: Sprinkle lightly with flaky sea salt and top with a fresh basil leaf.

Plating Tip: Arrange crostini on a long wooden board or slate platter. Drizzle lightly with olive oil for a restaurant-style presentation. The combination of creamy burrata, golden peach, and bright green basil sets the stage beautifully for the rest of the meal.

Make-Ahead Notes:

• Burrata mixture can be made 1–2 hours ahead.

• Peach slices can be caramelized up to 2 hours ahead.

Warmly,
