Servings: persons

3 cups sliced peeled peaches (about 4 peaches)
1/4 cup finely diced peeled seedless cucumber, plus thin slices for garnish
1/4 cup finely diced yellow bell pepper, plus thin slices for garnish
1/4 cup diced dried apricots
2 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons crumbled fresh goat cheese, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar, plus more for seasoning
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt
1 large garlic clove
2 cups diced baguette (1/2 inch)
Basil leaves, for garnish
Freshly ground black pepper

1
In a bowl, toss peaches, diced cucumber, yellow pepper and apricots. Add honey, 3 tablespoons of goat cheese, 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Stir in 1-1/2 teaspoons of salt. Add garlic. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
2
Discard garlic. Transfer the contents of the bowl to a blender and puree. Add 1/4 cup of water and puree until very smooth and creamy; add more water if soup seems too thick. Season with salt and vinegar. Refrigerate soup until very cold, about 1 hour.
3
Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil. Add diced bread and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer croutons to paper towels and season with salt.
4
Pour peach soup into shallow bowls and garnish with sliced cucumber, sliced bell pepper, goat cheese, croutons and basil. Drizzle lightly with olive oil, season with black pepper and serve
