RECIPE INGREDIENTS

» For Baked Peach Feta

• 1 block (about 7 oz / 200 g) feta cheese
• 5 ripe peaches
• ? cup (about 40 g) pistachios
• 2-3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2-3 tablespoons honey, for drizzling after baking
• A few fresh mint sprigs
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How to Make Baked Peach Feta

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and slice the peaches in half, remove the pits, and then cut them into wedges.
2. Roughly chop the pistachios and set them aside.
3. Remove the mint leaves from the sprigs and roughly tear them with your hands. You can also use basil leaves here.
4. Place the block of feta in the center of a baking dish and arrange the sliced peaches around it.
5. Drizzle the feta and peaches with 2-3 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the peaches and feta. Top with the roughly torn fresh mint leaves and finish with a generous sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the peaches are tender and lightly caramelized and the feta is warm and softened. Remove from the oven.
7. Immediately drizzle 2-3 tablespoons honey over the warm baked peaches and feta. Serve warm with toasted crusty bread, crostini, or crackers. Scoop up the creamy feta, juicy peaches, pistachios, and honey with the bread and enjoy!

RECIPE NOTES

1. Use ripe, juicy peaches that are still firm enough to hold their shape during baking.
2. Roughly tearing the mint leaves helps release their fresh aroma without bruising them too much.
3. Drizzle the honey over the feta and peaches after baking. This gives the dish a beautiful glossy finish and keeps the honey's fresh flavor.
