Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb pizza dough store-bought or homemade, room temperature
- 2 tbsp olive oil divided
- 2 large ripe peaches pitted and sliced into 1/2-inch wedges
- 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese torn into small pieces
- 0.5 cup fresh basil leaves torn, plus more for garnish
- 2 tbsp balsamic glaze store-bought or homemade
- 0.25 cup red onion thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp honey optional, for drizzling
- 0.5 tsp kosher salt plus more to taste
- 0.25 tsp black pepper freshly ground
Notes
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven or toaster oven for best results (microwave will make the crust soggy). Make-Ahead Tip: Grill the peaches and slice the onions up to a day in advance. The balsamic glaze can be made weeks ahead. Variations: Substitute goat cheese or burrata for the mozzarella, or add prosciutto (if not prohibited) for a salty contrast. For a gluten-free version, use a certified gluten-free pizza crust. Serving Suggestion: This pizza pairs beautifully with a simple arugula salad dressed with lemon vinaigrette.
