- Add the peaches to a barbecue-safe frying pan with the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. Place the frying pan on the barbecue and bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes, or until the syrup has thickened slightly, stirring occasionally. Don’t cook for too long as you don’t want the peaches to soften too much.
- Allow the peaches to cool completely by transferring them into a heatproof container and placing them in the fridge. This can be done in advance, or if you’re in a hurry, you can leave the barbecue on as the peaches won’t take long to cool.
- To make the blue cheese whip, using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment to whip the cream cheese and blue cheese until light and fluffy. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag or a zip-lock sandwich bag and cut the corner tip off.
- While the peaches are chilling, brush the cooking grills clean. Lay the pancetta and baguette slices in a single layer on the cooking grill. Grill over direct high heat, with the lid closed, for 2-4 minutes, or until the fat on the pancetta has rendered and turned crispy, and the baguette slices are toasted, flipping halfway through. Transfer the pancetta to a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess fat and keep it crispy.

Crush the pancetta and crumble it over the crostini. Drizzle with the left-over balsamic glaze and garnish with finely chopped rosemary. Serve immediately.
