Peach Amaretti Bruschetta Recipes

PEACH-AMARETTI BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Thinly slice a baguette; arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush with softened butter and sprinkle with salt and sugar. Bake at 425 degrees F until lightly golden, about 7 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Spread softened butter on the toast rounds. Top with peach preserves and crushed amaretti cookies.

PEACH, CORN AND BURRATA BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the corn, peaches, chile, basil, white balsamic, extra-virgin olive oil and kosher salt. Mix well with a spoon. Let marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Meanwhile, heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the ciabatta slices with the olive oil and grill until golden brown, about 1 minute per side.
• To serve, tear off small amounts of burrata and place on the toast. Sprinkle with the flaky sea salt. Spoon some of the salad on top. Drizzle with a touch more olive oil if desired.

AMARETTI STUFFED PEACHES

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 2 Tbsp. butter and pour into a 13 x 19 inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Pulse 3/4 cup crumbled amoretti in a food processor until finely chopped, then add flour, sugar, salt, and remaining 2 Tbsp. butter. Blend until butter is incorporated, then add egg and blend until smooth.
• Scoop out just enough peach pulp from center of each peach half with a melon ball cutter or small spoon to create a 1" deep cavity. Arrange peaches, cut sides up, in baking dish, then brush skins with melted butter from dish. Divide amaretti mixture among cavities, then sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup crumbled amoretti over filling. Bake until filling is puffed and crisp, 40 to 50 minutes. Serve warm or at room temp.
• Wisk mascarpone with a few tablespoons of milk until it reaches a consistency suitable to dollop on peaches. Spoon on 1 Tbsp. per peach.

PEACH BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay the baguette pieces in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush both sides with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, toss together the peaches, basil, salt and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Whisk together the honey, vinegar and hot sauce in a small bowl, adding more hot sauce to taste.
• To build the bruschetta, start with a piece of baguette, spread with the goat cheese, spoon on some peaches and top with the hot honey.

PEACH AND AMARETTI CRISP

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and lay a sheet of aluminum foil on the rack below to catch drippings. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• To make the filling:
• Mix the peach slices with the granulated sugar, flour, and vanilla or almond extract. Transfer the peaches to a shallow 2-quart baking dish.
• To make the topping:
• In a food processor, pulse together the flour, the brown and granulated sugars, amaretti, and cinnamon until the amaretti are in very small bits. Add the almonds and pulse until the nuts are in small pieces.
• Add the pieces of butter and pulse until the butter is finely broken up.Continue to pulse until the topping no longer looks sandy and is just beginning to hold together.
• Distribute the amaretti topping evenly over the peaches and bake the crisp for 40 to 50 minutes, until the edges are bubbling and a knife inserted into the center pierces the fruit easily.
• Serving:
• Serve warm with a cold pitcher of heavy cream or with vanilla ice cream.
• Variation:
• For a berry crisp, toss 6 to 8 cups mixed berries (quartered strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries) with 1/3 cup sugar, 2tablespoons flour, and a squirt of lemon juice. Cover with just enough topping to hide the fruit and freeze the rest.
