A quick and easy summer flatbread pizza featuring grilled nectarines, salty prosciutto, melty mozzarella, and fresh basil, perfect for a fresh and flavorful meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large flatbreads (store-bought or homemade, stone-baked preferred)
  • 2 ripe medium nectarines, sliced into thin wedges (about 1/4 inch thick)
  • 68 thin slices prosciutto di Parma
  • 1 cup shredded fresh mozzarella or thin slices of fresh mozzarella balls
  • 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
  • Salt and pepper to taste (flaky sea salt recommended)
  • Red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C), for approximately 10 minutes.
  2. Slice nectarines into thin wedges about 1/4 inch thick. Toss gently in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
  3. Grill nectarines in a single layer for 2-3 minutes per side until grill marks appear and they soften slightly but hold their shape. Remove and set aside.
  4. Brush both sides of the flatbreads lightly with olive oil. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy, watching closely to avoid burning.
  5. Remove flatbreads from grill and evenly sprinkle mozzarella over each. Scatter grilled nectarines and torn prosciutto slices on top. Add crumbled goat cheese if using.
  6. Place assembled flatbreads back on the grill, cover if possible, and grill for another 2-3 minutes until cheese melts and everything is warmed through.
  7. Remove from grill, drizzle with honey, scatter fresh basil leaves, and add a pinch of flaky sea salt and red pepper flakes if desired. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes

Keep the grill hot but not flaming to avoid burning flatbread. Use ripe but firm nectarines to prevent mushiness. Brush flatbread lightly with olive oil on both sides for crispiness. Grill nectarines first to avoid overcooking. Add prosciutto after grilling nectarines to keep it tender. Cover grill while melting cheese for best results. Avoid microwave for reheating to maintain crispiness.
