Peach & Ricotta Crostini Bites with DeLille Cellars Roofline Chardonnay

Tired of the same old cheese board with your happy hour glass of wine?

Yeah, me neither. That was a silly question.

But are you ready to impress everyone with some delicious but super easy happy hour bites to go alongside your cheese board?

That's what I thought!
​
Check out my recipe below for some tasty but easy to make Peach & Ricotta Crostini Bites. I've also done the work of finding the perfect wine the pair with it!

Peach & Ricotta Crostini Bites 

Ingredients

• Peach
• Baguette
• Ricotta Cheese
• Lightly Dried Basil (You can use fresh basil if you'd like too!)
• Honey

Instructions

1. Slice your peach into about 1/4-1/2 inch thick slices.
2. Prep your baguette by slicing it into small pieces of crostini. (About 1 inch thick.)
3. If you're using fresh basil, be sure to chop it up into small pieces.
4. Grill the sliced peaches using an outdoor barbeque or a grill pan over stovetop. About 1-2 minutes on each side. You want to see visible grill marks and the peach should start to soften just slightly. 
   
5. To assemble: Place a dollop of ricotta on your baguette. Then place a grilled peach over that. Top with dried basil and a drizzle of honey.
6. Enjoy!
