Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ball pizza dough (about 12 oz / 340 g)
- 2 medium ripe peaches, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
- 6 thin slices prosciutto
- A handful fresh basil leaves, torn or whole
- 6 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced or torn
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for brushing dough and peaches
- Balsamic glaze (optional, for drizzling)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Allow it to come up to temperature for 10-15 minutes.
- Wash and slice the peaches into 1/4-inch thick wedges. Lightly brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place peach slices directly on the grill grates. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side until char marks appear and peaches soften slightly.
- On a floured surface, gently stretch pizza dough into a roughly 12-inch circle. Brush one side lightly with olive oil.
- Place the dough oil-side down on the grill. Close the lid and cook for 2-3 minutes until grill marks appear and dough firms up.
- Brush the top side of the dough with olive oil and flip carefully using tongs or a spatula.
- Quickly spread mozzarella slices evenly over the grilled side of the dough. Arrange grilled peaches on top, then add prosciutto slices.
- Close the grill lid and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cheese melts and crust is crisp.
- Remove pizza from grill. Sprinkle torn fresh basil leaves generously over the top. Drizzle balsamic glaze if desired.
- Let pizza rest for a minute before slicing and serving.
Notes
Use medium-high heat to avoid burning crust. Brush olive oil on dough to prevent sticking. Add basil after cooking to preserve flavor and color. Watch cheese melting closely to avoid overcooking. For dairy-free, substitute mozzarella with plant-based cheese. For gluten-free, use gluten-free crust and adjust grilling time accordingly.
