Grilled Peach & Brie Crostini

Grilled Peach & Brie Crostini with fig balsamic reduction – simple to make and a perfect appetizer for your end-of-summer barbecues.

I believe strongly that no matter who you are, you need to have a go-to recipe in your back pocket for those times when you have surprise guests or just want something solid to make for your guests. Even if you don’t like to cook all that much, or even if you cook all the time, having that one recipe that you have made so many times that you barely have to think when putting it together is important and will also make you look like a pro.

Remember when I shared this fig bruschetta recipe few weeks ago? Not too long after that, we invited some folks to our home for a small gathering. Since it was a long weekend, I did not expect people would say yes, especially since we invited them at the very last minute. True enough, few of them declined the invitation politely.

To our surprise, some of them decided to show up. We were, of course, happy they could join us, but I was also panicked since we needed more food. Thankfully it was tea time so I only needed to make small bites here and there and that’s when this idea came about.

Peach is in season and I love fresh peach, especially when they are grilled. Adding brie would totally make these appetizer special, but wait… there’s another special ingredient for this appetizer. It’s the fig balsamic vinegar from B.R. Cohn. I love how sweet and refreshing the flavor is that it totally makes this peach crostini super fun. Who knew last minute idea can be so much fun!
