With summer in full swing here, we are starting to find locally grown summertime fruits at the store. Early peaches have arrived, much to our delight. I have crafted a very simple, delicious appetizer that combines peaches, fresh basil, and chevre (goat cheese). Yum!
Peach, Goat Cheese, and Basil Appetizer
Ripe peaches
Fresh basil leaves
Plain goat cheese (also known as chevre)
Mild raw honey (optional, to be used if the peaches aren't very sweet)
OPTIONAL: Crackers (Absolutely Gluten Free Flatbread are our favorite grain-free crackers; Jovial Sourdough Einkorn Crackers are our favorite wheat crackers)
Slice the peaches and pick some basil leaves.
Place one basil leaf on each cracker. Top with a couple crumbles of goat cheese and a slice of peach.
Alternatively, omit the crackers and make this into a peach, basil, and goat cheese salad instead!
Drizzle with balsamic glaze. Add a small drizzle of honey if the peaches are not very sweet.
Serve and enjoy!
