Summer Harvest Peach & Pesto Pizza
Here's a unique twist on pizza that includes farm-fresh peaches and a generous drizzle of hot honey, combining savory and sweet for a true summer celebration.
Ingredients
- 1 whole pizza dough pre-made
- 3 medium peaches sliced into wedges
- 1/2 cup pesto sauce
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded
- 4 ounces gorgonzola cheese crumbled
- 4 slices bacon fried, crumbled (if desired)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 2 cups butter lettuce or baby kale or arugala
- honey and/or hot honey to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to 450 degrees F.
- On parchment paper, use your hands to gently tug, pull and push the pizza dough into a rough 10-12 inch circle or rectangle. Dust your pizza peel with a generous amount of flour, if using.
- Spread the pesto all over the pizza crust. Top with mozzarella and crumbled gorgonzola.
- Sprinkle the bacon over top (if desired) and then arrange the peaches over the cheese, then with halved cherry tomatoes.
- Once your pizza oven is preheated, carefully slide your pizza from the peel and onto the pizza stone (or slide your pizza on parchment). Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the peaches are browned and juicy.
- To remove the pizza, slide the peel under the pizza and pull the pizza out. Or, just slide parchment and pizza onto a tray. Top the pizza with chopped lettuce.
- Drizzle with your choice of honey and serve!
