Ingredients
  

  • 1 pizza dough
  • 1/4 cup marinara or pizza sauce
  • 2 ounces mozzarella, shredded or cubed
  • 1/2 peach, sliced
  • 6 slices proscuitto, sliced thin
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped or torn
  • 1/2 cup arugula
  • 1 teaspoon thick balsamic, for finishing

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface or pizza peel (turning and flipping as you roll it out to prevent sticking).
  2. Spread out the marinara over the dough leave about 1/2 inch around the edges. Top with mozzarella then peach slices and prosciutto (I like to tear the prosciutto and twist it slightly as I arrange it over the pizza). Sprinkle fresh basil over the pizza. 
  3. Bake at 475 for 12-14 minutes. Then turn on broiler and move the pizza to the top level and broil (to brown the cheese slightly) for 1 minute.
  4. Remove from oven and top with fresh arugula. Drizzle with a thick balsamic and serve hot.
