During the summer, we buy a lot of fresh peaches, and use them and all our meals from appetizers all the way to dessert.

So, if you bought too many peaches for their recipe and you’re looking for other ways to use them, be sure to check out our list of recipes using fresh peaches.

Peaches With Prosciutto And Mozzarella Ingredients:

• Peaches – Fresh, in-season peaches work best because they hold up well against the soft cheese.
• Mozzarella cheese – We suggest the mozzarella cheese log that’s already pre-sliced. It just saves you some time.
• Prosciutto – The thin, sliced prosciutto that’s in the deli section of the grocery store.
• Balsamic glaze – Glaze adds such a nice pop of flavor and helps balance the sweetness of the peaches.
• Zesty lemon salt – This salt was released by McCormick in the spring as part of a limited-edition release. If you can’t find it, you can use kosher salt with a little pinch of lemon pepper seasoning.

How To Make Peaches With Prosciutto And Mozzarella:

Start by slicing the peaches into crescent-shaped sections.

The easiest way to cut them into crescents is by cutting the peach in half, removing the pit, then placing each half pit side down. Then slice across width-wise.

You want to make each slice about a quarter inch thick, so it’s similarly sized to your slice of mozzarella cheese.

Take the mozzarella cheese slices out of the pack.

Cut them in half into half moon shapes.

This should make them basically the same size as your peach slices. At least, that’s the goal.

Please a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of a peach slice.

I make sure that the curve of the cheese is going in the same direction as the curve of the peach slice. You don’t have to worry about that, really, but it does make it easier to wrap later.

Cut the sliced prosciutto into three equal pieces by cutting it lengthwise.

Cutting the prosciutto this way makes it easier to wrap around the peaches.

Wrap a piece of prosciutto around the peach and mozzarella slices, starting at the tip of the peach slice.

One slice of prosciutto should get you halfway, so grab a second slice, start in the middle, and wrap it to the other end.

Continue until all of your peach and mozzarella slices are wrapped in prosciutto.

Quick note: Two slices should be perfect for any of the middle pieces of the peach. The ends will probably only need one piece.

Place all of the wrapped peach and mozzarella pieces on a serving plate.

Drizzle them with a balsamic glaze.

The balsamic glaze is very flavorful and a little bit goes a long way, so try not to be heavy handed when you drizzle it.

Finally, sprinkle each piece with a little bit of the zesty lemon salt.

This lemon salt brings out such a good flavor. Originally, I made these and tried to omit the salt and they were missing something. After the addition of the lemon salt, they were perfect.

If you can’t find the salt or just don’t like our substitute above (Kosher salt mixed with lemon pepper seasoning), you can try adding Kosher salt and grading a little lemon on top.

You really miss a layer of flavor without the addition of the lemon salt.

Serve as soon as possible, before the balsamic glaze starts bleeding into the mozzarella cheese.
