Updated March 26, 2019 We love making homemade pizza. Josh is the dough master and I take care of the sauce and toppings. I usually choose a veggie loaded pizza while Josh goes for a sausage or pepperoni pizza. This time I decided to really switch up the toppings. One of my latest pregnancy cravings is peaches. I have been eating 3-4 a day. I can’t get enough! So when Josh suggested we make pizza, I asked if I could make a Peach, Basil, Mozzarella, & Balsamic Pizza. He knows not to mess with his pregnant wife’s cravings, so he said sure:)
Our basil is going crazy this year, so I went outside and picked a handful for our pizza. I also got out four juicy peaches from my stash and sliced some fresh mozzarella. While Josh was working on the pizza dough, I made a balsamic reduction to drizzle over the pizza. We really do make a great team in the kitchen:)
After Josh rolled out the pizza dough into a circle, I stepped in to top the pizza with my delicious toppings. I lightly brushed the dough with olive oil and then added fresh mozzarella slices, peach slices, and chopped basil. Next, I drizzled the pizza with the balsamic reduction. Such a pretty pizza!
Place the pizza in a hot oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes. This recipe makes two pizzas. You can assemble the second pizza while the first pizza is baking. If you only want to make one pizza, you can save the other half of the dough for another time. The dough freezes well.
We let the pizza cool for a few minutes, sliced it, and started eating. The juicy peaches made a terrific pizza topping. I loved the sweetness the peaches and balsamic reduction added to the pizza. The fresh mozzarella and basil were also divine. The flavor combination was phenomenal! Josh was pleasantly surprised by my pizza creation. We both loved this pizza! If you are looking for a fun, fresh, and unique pizza-try this Peach, Basil, Mozzarella, & Balsamic Pizza. It is the perfect pizza for summer!
