I first tried this peach and goat cheese crostini recipe as an appetizer for a family dinner. I don’t usually make appetizers, but I was eager to give it a shot. My husband, Brian, had a close call with missing out on it when he was delayed getting to the dinner table.

This recipe is like bruschetta but with peaches. When I make it, I skip mixing the goat cheese and lemon juice since goat cheese can have a tangy flavor that doesn’t need extra acidity. I just spread softened goat cheese on toasted baguette slices, top them with peach slices, and sprinkle fresh chopped thyme and basil. If I’m not serving them immediately, I wait to drizzle honey over the crostini just before serving.

I hope you’ll give this peach and goat cheese crostini appetizer a try. It became a quick favorite, and even our son asked for it specifically, mentioning he liked it better than ‘the tomato kind.’ 😃 Let me know how you like it.
