A quick and easy summer flatbread pizza featuring sweet fresh peaches, creamy mozzarella, and fragrant basil, drizzled with honey-olive oil and balsamic glaze for a perfect sweet-savory balance.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large store-bought flatbreads or naan
  • 2 ripe peaches, sliced thin
  • 1 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly torn
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze (optional)
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil and 1 teaspoon honey until combined. Set aside.
  3. Slice the peaches into thin wedges about 1/4 inch thick and slice the mozzarella into similar thickness.
  4. Brush each flatbread lightly with olive oil using a brush.
  5. Arrange the peach slices evenly over the flatbreads, leaving a small border around the edges.
  6. Top the peaches with mozzarella slices evenly.
  7. Season lightly with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
  8. Bake in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the crust is golden and crisp and the cheese is bubbly but not browned.
  9. Remove from the oven and immediately scatter torn fresh basil leaves on top.
  10. Drizzle with the honey-olive oil mixture and balsamic glaze.
  11. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid soggy crust. Brush flatbread with olive oil to ensure crispness. Fresh mozzarella melts best; avoid pre-shredded cheese. Watch oven closely to prevent over-browning. For better melting, cover pizza loosely with foil for first 5 minutes. Leftovers reheat best in oven, not microwave.
