I’ve been patiently waiting for peaches and other stone fruit to come into season and the time is finally here! I knew I wanted to make a light dish involving peaches because it’s been 117 degrees for about a month straight here in Arizona and I’m never super hungry when it’s hot. So I just whipped up the most delicious, easy-to-make peach and burrata crostini plate! It can easily be an appetizer or a light and refreshing meal on a hot summer day!
