Ingredients

  • 1 ciabatta loaf
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 peaches
  • 4 sprig/s lemon thyme, leaves picked
  • ⅔ x 90g pack wild rocket
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 250g Scooping Gorgonzola (from the cheese counter) or No.1 Gorgonzola Dolce DOP, mashed
  • 4 slice/s Parma ham
  • 4 tsp Wilderbee Hot Honey

Method

  1. Preheat a griddle pan over a mediumhigh heat. Cut the ciabatta in half, then split each half horizontally to make 4 even-sized pieces. Drizzle the cut surfaces with a little oil, griddle for 2-3 minutes each side until crisp and golden, then set aside.

  2. Meanwhile, remove the peach stones, cut the fruit into 6 wedges, then toss with a little oil, the thyme leaves and a sprinkle of salt. Griddle for 2-3 minutes each side until juicy and bar-marked, but still holding their shape.

  3. Toss the rocket with a drizzle of oil, the balsamic vinegar and some seasoning.

  4. Spoon the Gorgonzola onto the bruschetta, then top with the rocket and peaches. Arrange the ham on top, drizzle with a little hot honey and serve warm.

Cook’s tip

To go meat-free, swap the Parma ham for Waitrose Protein Boost Super Plant Blend Savoury Mix or mixed seeds sprinkled over.
