Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces (340 g) pizza dough, store-bought or homemade
- 2 medium ripe nectarines, sliced about 1/4-inch thick
- 8 ounces (225 g) fresh burrata cheese
- 4 ounces (115 g) thinly sliced prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 450°F (230°C). If using a pizza stone or cast iron skillet, place it on the grill to heat for about 15 minutes.
- Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to about 12 inches (30 cm) in diameter. Brush one side lightly with olive oil; this side will go on the grill first.
- Place the oiled side of the dough down on the hot grill or preheated stone. Close the lid and grill for 2-3 minutes until grill marks appear and the dough starts to bubble. Carefully flip using tongs and a spatula.
- Brush the grilled side lightly with olive oil, then evenly arrange the nectarine slices over the dough. Tear the burrata into chunks and distribute over the nectarines. Season with salt and pepper.
- Close the grill lid and cook for another 3-5 minutes until the bottom is crisp and the burrata softens but does not fully melt.
- Remove the pizza from the grill. Drape the prosciutto slices on top, scatter torn basil leaves, and drizzle with honey if desired.
- Let the pizza rest for a minute, then slice with a pizza cutter and serve warm.
Notes
Pat nectarines dry if very juicy to avoid soggy dough. Grill with lid closed to cook toppings evenly and melt burrata gently. Use enough olive oil on dough to prevent sticking. Add prosciutto after grilling to keep it tender and flavorful. For gluten-free, use almond flour crust. For dairy-free, substitute burrata with cashew cheese.
