1small baguettethinly sliced
2tablespoonsextra virgin olive oil

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°Fahrenheit (200°Celsius). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toast for 8–10 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
Place the burrata balls at the center of the serving board, either torn open or whole.
Fan out the peach slices and blackberries around the burrata. Loosely fold and arrange the prosciutto around the board.
Spoon the cherry tomato confit into a small bowl and place it on the board. Add the marinated olives in another bowl or directly on the board.
Scatter the toasted pistachios, torn basil leaves, and honeycomb around the board. Drizzle the burrata with olive oil and season everything with flaky sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Serve with toasted baguette slices and a chilled cocktail or glass of rosé.
Notes
Let the burrata come to room temperature. Pull it out of the fridge 15-20 minutes before serving. Cold burrata is firm; room temperature burrata is creamy and the interior spills out beautifully when you tear it open.Tear the burrata, don't slice it. Tearing is more dramatic and lets the creamy interior ooze out naturally. Use your hands and do it right before serving.Make the cherry tomato confit ahead. It keeps in the fridge for up to a week and takes the board from nice to next level. Warm it slightly before serving so the olive oil is loose and fragrant.Use a mix of textures and heights. Fold the prosciutto, fan the peaches, scatter the nuts. Visual variety is what makes a board look considered rather than just thrown together.Storage: Burrata is best the day it is served. Store any leftovers in separate airtight containers in the fridge for up to 1 day. Toss leftover burrata and tomato confit with pasta or pile onto sourdough with a fried egg the next morning.
