Blueberry Peach Summer Bruschetta
- 2 Small To Medium White Or Yellow Peaches, Halved, Cored And Thinly Sliced
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar, Divided
- 1 Tablespoon Extra-virgin Olive Oil, Plus More For Drizzling
- 1/2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 pinch Coarse Sea Salt Or More To Taste
- 1 cup Ricotta
- 1/2 loaves Long Baguette
- Fresh Mint, Small Whole Leaves Or Chiffonade
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine sliced peaches, blueberries, half of the sugar, the olive oil, vanilla extract, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Toss very gently to combine, so as not to disturb the peaches too much.
- Let the fruit and sugar macerate just until fruit begins to release juices, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk ricotta and remaining half of the sugar in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.
- Place the baguette slices in a single layer on a large, rimmed baking sheet and drizzle each of the slices with a bit of olive oil on both sides.
- Toast in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes until crisp and golden.
- Alternately you can toast the slices in a pan on the stove top.
- If you do this, heat a pan over medium heat.
- Drizzle the slices with olive oil on both sides.
- Toast for 1-2 minutes per side until crisp and golden.
- Allow the slices to cool before topping.
- Spread each of the baguette slices generously with the ricotta mixture and top with the peaches and blueberries.
- Drizzle each slice with the juices from the fruit bowl and a touch of olive oil, if desired.
- Sprinkle with sea salt and garnish with sliced mint leaves.
- Serve and enjoy!
- Recipe yields about 14 bruschetta, give or take a slice.
