Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or your grill to the highest setting.
  2. Slice the baguette into ½-inch thick pieces and arrange on a baking sheet. Toast for 10-12 minutes or grill for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine diced peaches, chopped tomatoes, minced garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice. Toss well and let marinate for about 10 minutes.
  4. In a food processor, blend the ricotta cheese until creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Drain excess liquid beforehand for a thicker texture.
  5. Spread a generous layer of whipped ricotta onto each toasted baguette slice, then top with the peach and tomato mixture. Sprinkle fresh basil on top.
  6. Serve immediately for the best experience. Drizzle balsamic glaze before serving if desired.
