Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

8 oz burrata cheese

2 tablespoons honey

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Balsamic glaze, for drizzling

Optional: Crusty bread or crackers, for serving

Instructions
 

Prep the Grill: Begin by preheating your grill to medium heat, ensuring that the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

    Prepare Peaches: Take the peach halves and brush the cut sides generously with olive oil. Season them lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper, allowing the flavors to enhance the natural sweetness of the peaches.

      Grill Peaches: Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill. Grill them for about 3-4 minutes or until you see beautiful grill marks and the peaches begin to soften slightly. Carefully flip the peaches over and grill for an additional 2 minutes to warm them through without overcooking.

        Arrange Platter: While the peaches are grilling, gently tear the burrata cheese into large, rustic pieces and artfully arrange them on a serving platter, creating a cozy nest for the peaches.

          Add Grilled Peaches: Once the peaches are beautifully charred, remove them from the grill and place them around the burrata on the platter, allowing the colors to contrast beautifully.

            Drizzle with Honey: Take the 2 tablespoons of honey and drizzle it artfully over the burrata and peaches, enhancing the natural flavors with a touch of sweetness.

              Garnish: Scatter fresh basil leaves atop the dish, not only adding vibrant color but also a refreshing herbal note that pairs wonderfully with the rich cheese and sweet peaches.

                Balsamic Drizzle: Complete the dish with a finishing drizzle of balsamic glaze, adding a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity that elevates the entire flavor profile.

                  Serve: Consider serving with crusty bread or crackers on the side, offering a satisfying crunch that contrasts with the creaminess of the burrata.

                    Enjoy this simple yet visually striking dish that combines summer sweetness with creamy indulgence, perfect for any gathering!
