Ingredients
1 pizza dough or flatbread
1–2 fresh peaches, sliced
1–2 cups mozzarella cheese (shredded or fresh)
Fresh basil leaves
1–2 tbsp olive oil
1–2 tbsp balsamic glaze
Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional: goat cheese or roasted red peppers (instead of prosciutto)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C)
Lay pizza dough on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil
Sprinkle mozzarella evenly over the dough
Arrange sliced peaches on top of the cheese
Scatter fresh basil leaves and drizzle balsamic glaze (if using)
Season with salt and pepper
Bake for 10–12 minutes until crust is golden and crisp
Let cool slightly before serving
Notes
Use fully ripened peaches for optimal sweetness and juiciness
For a dairy-free version, substitute mozzarella with vegan cheese
Balsamic glaze can be replaced with a balsamic reduction, if available
