Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 slices pugliese bread, 1/2 inch each
  • 1 peach, pit removed, halved and then quartered (8 slices)
  • 1/4 cup fresh blue cheese crumbles (I used Salemville Smokehaus Blue for a smokier flavor)
  • 1 stem fresh mint, roughly chopped (I used fresh lemon mint from the garden!)
  • 2 tablespoons fig jam
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil for brushing


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400˚F. Place a piece of foil on a baking sheet.
  2. Lightly brush each slice of bread with olive oil. Place 4 peach slices on each piece. Top with blue cheese crumbles.
  3. Place slices on prepared baking sheet.Cook on a center rack in the oven for 7-8 minutes. Change the oven setting to a 500˚F broil and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes, until blue cheese is bubbling and bread is toasted. Keep an eye on it! Remove and let cool 2 minutes.
  4. While the bread is baking, make the balsamic reduction: Pour balsamic vinegar into a small pot over medium low heat. Cook for 10 minutes, until somewhat thickened but not syrup. Vinegar should steam but not bubble.
  5. Immediately drizzle reduction on top of toasts. Top with drops of fig jam and chopped mint as desired. Serve immediately.
