Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pizza dough or homemade pizza dough

2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced

1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup goat cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup balsamic glaze

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Prosciutto slices for added flavor

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven now so it can heat up as well.

    Prepare the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough to your preferred thickness—about 1/4 inch is ideal for a crispy crust. Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

      Brush the Dough: Using a pastry brush, coat the surface of the dough with olive oil, ensuring an even layer. This step will help create a beautifully crisp and golden crust when baked.

        Assemble the Pizza:

          - Begin by sprinkling half of the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough's surface.

            - Next, artistically arrange the thinly sliced peaches on top, creating a circular pattern. If you’re incorporating prosciutto, now is the time to lay it over the peaches for an extra layer of flavor.

              - Crumble the goat cheese generously over the peach slices, and then top with the remaining mozzarella cheese for a gooey finish.

                - Finally, season with a pinch of salt and freshly cracked pepper to enhance the flavors.

                  Bake the Pizza: Carefully place the assembled pizza in the preheated oven (or onto the hot pizza stone) and bake for 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it until the crust turns a golden brown and the cheese is bubbling and melted.

                    Add the Finishing Touches: When the pizza is ready, take it out of the oven and immediately drizzle a luscious balsamic glaze over the top. Sprinkle freshly chopped basil on it for a fragrant and colorful touch.

                      Slice and Serve: Allow the pizza to cool for a minute to avoid burns, then slice it into wedges, and serve them hot for a delightful sweet and savory experience!
