Recipe: Peachy Pesto Toast

Author: Kelly King Corbin, Hamama Grower

Prep Time: 15 Mins

Cook Time: 0 Mins

Makes: 2 Pieces

I can’t say that I’m quite ready for summer to end, so for now I’m savoring all of the remaining summer produce. Peaches are my favorites; I follow the Georgia Peach Truck stops here in Wisconsin so I can get tons of fresh Georgia Peaches towards the end of Summer! I am always looking for news ways to use them & I stumbled across Hamama grower Kelly King Corbin’s eye-catching Peach Toast! Here is a version inspired by her great idea (the pictures are hers!).

*TIPS* Put these toppings on Crostini for a tasty, beautiful, and bite-sized snack to share! You could even just toss these ingredients together over a bed of mixed greens/arugula, add some toasted pecans, and make a lovely end-of-summer salad!

Ingredients:

2 slices of Bread, sliced, drizzled with olive oil, and grilled or toasted
1 peach (firm, yet ripe)
Feta cheese crumbles to taste (Can sub goat cheese or fresh mozzarella)
Heirloom or cherry tomatoes, sliced
A couple of thin red onion slices (optional)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Balsamic Vinegar, for drizzling
A few leaves of arugula
Hamama Microgreens - Super Salad Mix is great on this!

Basil & Microgreen Pesto:

1 packed cup basil and your favorite Microgreens (Radish adds a nice bite! Mint is also a lovely addition).
¼ cup pine nuts, toasted (you could also use walnuts, pecans, or almonds)
1 garlic clove, roughly chopped
Juice and zest from ½ lemon
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil, more if desired
Pinches red pepper flakes
Sea salt and fresh black pepper

Instructions:

Slice peaches into 6 segments per peach.
Make the pesto: Combine the microgreens, basil, nuts, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and olive oil in a small food processor with pinches of red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Pulse to combine, adding more oil for a smoother pesto, or leaving it chunky – whichever consistency you prefer!
Assemble toast: Top the toasted bread with a dollop of pesto, arugula, feta crumbles, red onion, tomatoes, and fresh peach slices! Garnish with more Hamama microgreens!

ENJOY! -Allie
