Found this on ivillage, and here is their description: Sweet and tangy flavors make this a perfect starter. I've made it twice so far, and it got rave reviews. I used New York Rye Bread for the Bread Machine ( New York Rye Bread for the Bread Machine ) Time is a guess, and does not include time spent making homemade bread. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil |
8 slices french bread, 1/2 inch thick |
2 large ripe yellow peaches, each sliced into 6 wedges |
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
salt and pepper |
1 small shallot, thinly sliced |
2 ounces goat cheese |
8 sprigs marjoram |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, or medium heat for the grill
2. Brush 2 tablespoons of the olive oil on the bread slices, and toast or grill until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.
3. toss the remaining tablespoon of olive oil with the peach slices, the lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper, String the slices on 2 or 3 skewers. Grill the peaches over a medium flame until slightly charred. Remove from the skewers and toss with the shallots. Spread the goat cheese on the toasted bread and top with 2 to 3 peach slices and a marjoram sprig. Serve warm.
