Prosciutto Basil Wrapped Peaches
If you’re looking for a good summer appetizer, look no further. This little appetizer was made up after making my peach prosciutto pizza and having these ingredients leftover (no food waste in this house!). So, if you plan accordingly you can make both of these amazing recipe back to back ;) These are cool, crisp, delicious, and packed with flavor. The creamy goat cheese and salty prosciutto work so well with the sweet and juicy peaches. Plus, the fresh taste of basil gives it that extra pop to make anyone’s mouth water! Give them a try (and then make them again and again) and don’t forget to leave a review!
What do I need to make this recipe?
Peaches
Goat cheese
Prosciutto
Basil
Optional for topping: honey, spicy honey, or balsamic glaze.
Can I use something other than goat cheese?
Ok, ok. I know not everyone is as obsessed with goat cheese as I am (I’m not saying you’re wrong, but you are). You can definitely use a slice of fresh mozzarella for these. It won’t have the same flavor, but they will be just as delicious!

….Hm, I wonder if I like the peach and basil combo? (But seriously, I could make a million more recipes with this combo, it’s fucking delicious.)
