Ingredients
  

2 medium ripe tomatoes, diced

1 medium ripe peach, diced (preferably yellow or white)

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, sliced thinly

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 baguette or ciabatta loaf, sliced into 1/2-inch thick pieces

Optional: 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove of garlic, halved for rubbing

Instructions
 

Prep the Topping: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, diced peach, finely chopped red onion, and thinly sliced basil leaves. Drizzle the mixture with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Gently toss to combine all ingredients, then allow the mixture to sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature. This resting time will allow the flavors to meld beautifully while you prepare the bread.

    Toast the Bread: Preheat your oven broiler on high. Arrange the sliced baguette or ciabatta on a baking sheet in a single layer. Use a pastry brush to lightly coat both sides of the bread with olive oil. Place the baking sheet in the oven and toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning; oven broilers can be quite powerful.

      Optional Garlic Infusion: If you choose to use fresh garlic, take the halved clove and gently rub the cut side over the warm, toasted bread for a subtle garlic flavor. If you prefer garlic powder, sprinkle a pinch over the toast before adding the topping.

        Assembly: Once the bread is toasted to a golden perfection, carefully remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly for a minute. Generously spoon the vibrant tomato and peach mixture on top of each slice of toasted bread.

          Serve: Arrange the assembled bruschetta artistically on a serving platter. For an added touch, you can drizzle a little more balsamic vinegar over the top or sprinkle additional fresh basil leaves for garnish. Serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing burst of flavors!
