Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Use nectarines or apricots as a substitute when peaches are out of season. For a deeper flavor, quickly grill the peach slices for 1–2 minutes on each side before layering. This enhances their natural sweetness and adds a subtle smoky note to the dish.

Varianten und Anpassungen

To add more crunch and a nutty aroma, sprinkle chopped pistachios or toasted almonds atop the finished toast. For a vegan version, consider swapping burrata for a plant-based creamy cheese alternative and substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
