A perfect blend of smoky, sweet, creamy, and spicy. Juicy grilled peaches bring caramelized sweetness that pairs beautifully with tangy goat cheese spread on crisp baguette slices. The bold Scorched Bonnets Sweet Heat Pepper Spread adds a fiery-sweet kick that brightens every bite. Finished with fresh herbs, this crostini works equally well as an elegant appetizer or a unique sweet-savory dessert.

Ingredients

1 baguette, sliced into 12 thin rounds
2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced into 8 wedges each
4 oz goat cheese, softened
2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp Scorched Bonnets Sweet Heat Pepper Spread
Fresh thyme or basil leaves for garnish
Optional: honey for drizzling

Directions

1. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
2. Brush the baguette slices lightly with olive oil. Grill for 1–2 minutes on each side until golden and crisp, then set aside.
3. Brush the peach slices lightly with olive oil. Grill for 2–3 minutes per side until grill marks appear and the peaches soften slightly.
4. Spread each toasted baguette slice with goat cheese. Place one grilled peach wedge on top of each slice.
5. Drizzle the crostini with Scorched Bonnets Sweet Heat Pepper Spread. Garnish with fresh thyme or basil leaves. For extra sweetness, drizzle a small amount of honey over the top if desired.
6. Serve immediately!

🔥 Pro Tip

If grilling is not available, roast the peach slices in the oven at 425°F for about 8 minutes until lightly caramelized. This still brings out their natural sweetness and keeps the crostini rich and flavorful.
