Ingredients

  • 1 peach pitted and cut into wedges
  • 1 plum pitted and cut into wedges
  • 1 cup Sungold or cherry tomatoes halved
  • ½ shallot thinly sliced
  • 2 thick slices olive bread cut into cubes (any sturdy bread works)
  • ¼ cup olive oil plus more for the croutons
  • 2 tbsp roasted sesame seeds
  • 2 –3 tbsp aged balsamic vinegar
  • Handful of fresh basil leaves
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Toss the bread cubes with a generous drizzle of olive oil. Spread in a single layer on a sheet pan and toast at 350°F for 10–20 minutes, until lightly golden and crispy on the outside but still slightly soft inside.
  • In a large bowl, toss the peaches, plums, tomatoes, shallots, sesame seeds, ¼ cup olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Add the croutons, season with salt and pepper, and toss again until the bread has soaked up the oil and fruit juices.
  • Arrange on a platter or in a large bowl and scatter fresh basil over the top.
