Ingredients

  • 1 baguette (~20 slices of baguette)
  • Olive oil and salt to taste
  • 8 oz @RothCheese Havarti, cut into 20 slices (or as many slices as the number of baguette slices)
  • 2-3 peaches, sliced into wedges
  • 10 slices prosciutto, cut in half
  • Hot honey
  • Balsamic glaze
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Thinly sliced basil to taste

Step 1: Preheat the Grill

Start by preheating your grill to medium heat.

This will ensure that your baguette slices get that perfect toasty texture without burning.

Step 2: Prepare the Baguette

Slice the baguette into approximately 20 pieces.

Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil and season lightly with salt.

This helps to achieve a golden, crispy crust when grilled.

Step 3: Grill the Baguette Slices

Place the baguette slices on the grill and cook for 1-2 minutes per side.

You want to grill them just long enough to toast both sides to a light golden brown.

Once done, remove from heat and let the slices cool.

Step 4: Wrap the Peaches

Take each peach slice and wrap it in a slice of prosciutto that has been cut in half.

This creates a delicious combination of sweet and salty that pairs perfectly with the creamy cheese.

Step 5: Assemble the Crostini

On each grilled baguette slice, place a slice of Havarti cheese.

Top with a prosciutto-wrapped peach slice.

Arrange the crostini on a serving platter.

Step 6: Add Final Touches

Drizzle hot honey and balsamic glaze over the assembled crostini.

Season with black pepper and garnish with thinly sliced basil to taste.

The hot honey adds a touch of sweetness and spice, while the balsamic glaze introduces a tangy contrast.

Make Ahead Tips

To save time, you can grill the baguette slices ahead of time.

Also, prepare the cheese slices and prosciutto-wrapped peaches in advance.

This allows you to quickly assemble the crostini just before serving.

Conclusion

This Hot Honey, Peach, Prosciutto & Havarti Crostini is more than just an appetizer—it’s a celebration of summer flavors.

The combination of creamy Havarti, sweet peaches, and salty prosciutto, enhanced by the spicy hot honey and tangy balsamic glaze, creates a perfect bite.
