PISTACHIO PEACH CROSTINI
makes 4 servings (as a starter) | easy | 20 minutes
there’s something kind of magical about this pistachio peach crostini—it’s the kind of bite that makes you stop mid-convo and just savor for a second. it’s light but layered, simple but surprisingly bold. you’ve got the juicy, sun-ripened sweetness of fresh peaches playing off the creamy richness of whatever soft cheese you choose (goat, ricotta, burrata—honestly, you can’t go wrong). and then the pistachios come in with that perfect salty crunch that ties the whole thing together.
it’s the ideal thing to serve when you want to feel a little fancy without actually putting in a ton of effort. great for summer evenings, backyard hangs, or those “let’s just open a bottle of wine and see where the night goes” kind of moments. it’s fresh, it’s seasonal, and it’s got that sweet-savory-crunchy-creamy balance that makes every bite feel like a little celebration.
