Preparation
8 steps
Step 1 · Heat the grill
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2 · Make the whipped feta
Add the feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice and black pepper to a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Transfer to the refrigerator while you prepare the peaches.
Step 3 · Prep the peaches
Cut the peaches into wedges and lightly coat with olive oil.
Step 4 · Grill the peaches
Place the peaches directly on the grill and cook for 1–2 minutes per side, until lightly caramelized and warmed through. You want them to hold their shape.
Step 5 · Toast the pine nuts
Add the pine nuts to a dry skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until lightly golden and fragrant.
Step 6 · Build the platter
Spread the whipped feta over a serving platter. Arrange the warm peaches over the feta.
Step 7 · Finish
Scatter the toasted pine nuts, mint and Aleppo pepper over the peaches. Drizzle lightly with honey and olive oil and finish with flaky salt.
Step 8 · Serve
Serve while the peaches are still slightly warm against the cool whipped feta.
