A quick and easy summer pizza featuring smoky grilled peaches, creamy burrata cheese, and a tangy balsamic glaze for a perfect sweet-savory balance.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 g) pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 medium ripe but firm fresh peaches
  • 8 ounces (225 g) burrata cheese
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic glaze
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: red pepper flakes
  • Optional: honey drizzle

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes.
  2. Cut peaches in half and remove pits. Brush each half lightly with olive oil.
  3. Grill peaches cut side down for 3-4 minutes until char marks appear and peaches soften slightly. Flip and grill skin side for 2 more minutes. Remove and slice into wedges.
  4. Roll out pizza dough on a floured surface to about 12 inches diameter. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone. Brush dough evenly with olive oil.
  5. Pre-bake the crust in a preheated oven at 475°F (245°C) for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Remove crust from oven. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter evenly over crust. Arrange grilled peach slices on top. Sprinkle torn basil leaves and season with salt and black pepper.
  7. Return pizza to oven and bake for another 7-10 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is soft but not melted into a puddle.
  8. Drizzle balsamic glaze in a zigzag pattern across pizza just before serving. Optionally add honey drizzle or red pepper flakes.
  9. Slice and serve warm immediately.

Notes

Grilling peaches adds a subtle smokiness and caramelization that enhances flavor. Use firm but ripe peaches to avoid mushiness. Tear burrata gently to maintain creamy texture. Pre-bake crust to prevent sogginess. Drizzle balsamic glaze after baking to avoid burning. Store leftovers uncovered or loosely wrapped in fridge for up to 2 days and reheat in oven or toaster oven for best texture.
