Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 25 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes
Make the Whipped Feta:
In a food processor, combine the feta cheese, cream cheese, 1/4 cup olive oil, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Prepare the Blistered Tomatoes:
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
In an 11” ovenproof skillet, add the cherry tomatoes with 1/3 cup olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper.
Place the skillet over the heat and cook the tomatoes for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to blister. Add the sliced garlic, stir, and cook for another 5 minutes.
Grill the Peaches:
Brush the peach slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil and white balsamic vinegar.
Place the peach slices on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until grill marks appear and the peaches are slightly softened. Set aside.
Prepare the Crostini:
Grill the toast slices for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
Assemble the Crostini
Spread a layer of whipped feta on each slice of grilled Texas toast. Top with 3 grilled peach slices and 3 blistered tomatoes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy!
