Peach Burrata Pizza with Honey Balsamic.
It’s a summer pizza kind of Thursday! YES.
Do you guys ever have weeks where all you really want to make is pizza? I feel like I’ve been making at least a pizza a week since June, and I cannot lie, it’s been amazing. I have done so many yummy combos, but today’s Peach Burrata Pizza with Honey Balsamic has got to be one of my favorites of the summer.
I mean, peaches + burrata + honey balsamic?!? Yes, please!
So you guys! Serious talk.
I think that I need to go to Italy, and while there, I need to eat all the pizza, pasta and burrata I can get my hands on because I’ve been obsessed with them lately! Like I cannot get enough, it’s all I want to cook, eat and photograph. Have you noticed? Plus, this time next week I will hopefully be winding down from a big week of video shoots. I should also be off cookbook duty, at least for a little while (turning first draft of manuscript in on Sunday!). This means I can maybe, just maybe, have a day to like chill the heck out.
What do you think? On my chill day should I plan a trip to Italy? Yeah, I’m thinking that’s a little ambitious for me right now. I should probably just get a head start on planning Asher’s Birthday trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, but Italy soonish! Maybe I can get my Nonnie to go with me next summer or something. Who knows, but until then I’ll just keep making pizzas with all the burrata I can find.
OH, but I gotta know, any of you guys that have traveled to Italy, where should I go? What should I EAT? Please tell me, I am so curious!!
OK, but let’s chat about this here pizza.
It’s kind of perfection in my eyes, seeing as it literally has all of my very favorites. I’m talking, basil, peaches, blue cheese, burrata cheese, salami and balsamic. Yum and YUM!
Here’s what you need to know about this pizza.
…it is super easy and fast to make. Pizza dinner in under thirty minutes. Score!
…while I love blue cheese, and think it pairs so incredibly well with peaches, I do fully understand that not everyone is into it. If this is the case for you, you can use goat cheese, or just add a little extra burrata to your pizza.
…I used fresh, ripe peaches, but any stone fruit would be amazing… nectarines, cherries, plums or maybe even a combo! 🙂
…for my meat, I went with salami. I adore it paired with the peaches and burrata. You could also use prosciutto or simply omit the meat to make the pizza vegetarian.
As you can see, it’s a very easy pizza to adapt…but I gotta say, I love this pizza just the way I am telling you to make it. Be a little adventurous, give blue cheese another try, load on the yummy salami, and then even more burrata, and let’s all eat pizza!!
I mean, OK if you insist.

A delicious summer pizza
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound homemade or store-bought pizza dough
- 3-5 tablespoons basil pesto
- 4 ounces blue cheese crumbled
- 3-4 ripe peaches thinly sliced
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves torn
- 8 ounces burrata cheese
- olive oil for drizzling
- sea salt + pepper to taste
- handful of Italian microgreens
Honey Balsamic
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
- pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet with olive oil.
-
On a lightly floured surface, push/roll the dough out until until it is pretty thin (about a 10-12 inch circle). Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Spread the dough with pesto and top with blue cheese. Add the sliced peaches and about half of the basil. Drizzle the pizza lightly with olive oil, salt and pepper.

Place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the crust is golden, the cheese has melted and the peaches have caramelized. Remove from the oven and top with salami and burrata. Allow the burrata to sit on the pizza and warm through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle on the remaining basil, and drizzle the pizza with the honey balsamic (see below). if desired add a handful of microgreens. Slice and eat!
Honey Balsamic

Combine all ingredients together in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Serve, drizzled over the pizza.
Pizza Thursday for the win! ?
Hmmmm nope, pizza with fruit is really not my thing, sadly. It looks beautiful, but I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t enjoy the added peach 😉

I love stone fruit on pizza with cheese – my husband doesn’t, however.
Just replace HIS pizza with Heriloom tomatoes instead – that’s what I will do.
*heirloom…… typo!
Sounds perfect! Hope you guys love it! Thanks Toni!
Bummer! I guess its not for everyone! Glad it looks pretty still though!! Haha! Thank you
Yes!!! Peaches and pizza are such an unassuming, and yet completely BRILLIANT, combo! I feel like I could eat this entire thing, ah, and all that burrata!!!
I thought it was weird at first! haha So good though!! Thanks a ton Tori!
This looks so good and the crust looks even better. What a beautiful pizza! If pizzas can be called beautiful lol.
Haha!! Thank you so much Stephanie!
I loove pizza and make it quite often but not sure about the peaches there, however, looking at your pictures I guess I would eat anything! As for the trip to Italy, I’ve been to a few places but I think wherever you go you will love it! Never been to Tuscany but every time I see pictures I just wanna go! But the Emilia Romagna region is a must – it is home of prosciutto, parmesan cheese and balsamic vinegar! They say there is the best food also! Been to Bologna (the capital of this region) and the pasta dishes were amazing!
I hope you like it!! For sure A bit weird, but I promise its good! I think that I will love it no matter what as well! Sounds like theres a few places I need to make it to!!
I love your constant combinations of fruit and savory! I especially love burratta!!!

Thanks Jessica!
I bought a box of peaches on Saturday and they are ready to eat so now I have the first recipe to make with them.
Perfect!! I hope you love it Nancy!!
Yes go to Italy! You should go to Lake Como. By far the most beautiful place I have EVER been. And also Verona. It is the most picture perfect little city, exactly what you picture Italy to be like. Our first night eating dinner there, a guy stood up at his table and started singing opera for all the other customers. Not even kidding. It was so crazy and amazing. Ok, now I want to go back. Coming on your trip with you 🙂
Ah sounds so amazing! Definitely convincing! (:
Italy is one amazing country – I’m not sure you could go wrong with any destination, especially when it comes to food! Spending a few days in Florence soaking in the art and then visiting a few smaller and less touristy places would be amazing, but visiting Rome would be equally as great, though possibly a bit less relaxing, since the city can feel a little overwhelming at first. I have had the best ice cream of my life in Rome, though, so that alone would be a reason for me to visit! 😉 I haven’t been to Naples and the Amalfi Coast yet, but it’s the birthplace of pizza and I’ve heard people say that no pizza compares afterwards – maybe that could be too dangerous? 😉
Anyway, I don’t think you could go wrong! By the way, I also definitely don’t mind all the pizza and burrata goodness on your blog lately – I mean, you can never have too much pizza and burrata, right?
Hey Melanie!! Oh my gosh!! I totally need to go to Italy!! Thank you so much for all these great suggestions, I am so excited!! I mean ice cream in Rome and pizza in Naples!?!? yES!!!! ?? happy Friday!!
Wow the peaches are such a perfect addition! I love how golden you got your pizza crust as well- I always burn mine 🙁
http://desgeulasse.com/
Oh believe me I burn mine too! Takes A few times sometimes!! Thank you Phyllis!
One of my favourite Summer salads contains peach and burrata so this pizza sounds like heaven to me! Can’t wait to make it!
YAY Hope you love it Vicky!
This pizza looks amazing! Oh in Italy there are so many amazing dishes besides those that tourists normally go after the first like pizza or spaghetti bolognese! My husband is Italian so whenever we go to Italy of course we eat a lot of cheese and prosciutto, pasta like spaghetti con le vongole (pasta with clams, one of my favorite!), simple penne with tomatoes and basil, melanzana parmigiana (eggplant dish with tomato sauce and lots of mozzarella), filled artichokes, ossobuco (cross-cut veal shanks braised with vegetables, white wine …), vitello tonnato (cold, sliced veal covered with a creamy, mayonnaise-like sauce), lots of fresh fish etc… The food is just amazing in Italy and I always come back home 2-3 kg heavier uuups! 😀
OH MY GOSH! Those all sound so freaking good! I need it all! Sounds like I must go!
Thanks a ton Lili!
Nothing like grilled peaches in the summer. I enjoy making summer salads on Naan Flatbread right on the grill drizzled with some balsamic. Your version looks quite tasty.
Ah so good on flatbreads!
Hope you love this Vicki! Thank you!
I don’t usually like fruit on my pizza either, but I’m going to give it a try. I think the savory and the sweet from the peach might be a fun change. Your photography is stunning and makes everything look delicious!
Awesome! I hope you love it! Thank you so much!
OMG This looks amazing! (And easily vegetarian!) I’ve been love love loving peaches + almond butter on toast lately. I love the idea of peaches on pizza!
Very easily vegetarian! Thanks so much! I hope you love it Liz!
During the summer I want to add stone fruit to EVERYTHING, so I totally love this pizza. Must make this weekend – thanks for the inspiration Tieghan!
Perfect!! Hope you love it!! Thanks for reading MB(:
Oh my gosh — swooning over this!!! Gorgeous!! xox
Thanks so much Rebecca! Hope you love it!
This looks amazing – so many of my favourite thing on one handy pizza! Italy is fantastic too, you should definitely try to plan a trip there!
Thanks Maria!! It looks amazing!!
So gorgeous, I love a peach pizza in the summer!
Right!! Thanks Laura!
Very useful post. This is my first time i visit here. I found so many interesting stuff in your blog especially its discussion. Really its great article. Keep it up!
Thanks so much!
This is a great web site. Good sparkling user interface and very informative blogs. I will be coming back in a bit, thanks for the great article. I have found it enormously useful.
Thanks so much!!
I can’t wait to make this! Grilled peaches are the best alone or on anything. A local pizza place makes a Pear, Gorgonzola, honey pizza (dessert) which is heavenly so fruit on a pizza is a nice treat. I just came back from Italy and I can’t wait to return next year–the people, art, architecture, food and ambience is amazing (as well as the limoncello and melloncello).
WOW! First of all, so jealous you were in Italy! Looks amazing!
That pizza sounds so good!!
Thanks Diane!!
I enjoy seeing all of your exciting pizza combinations. My wife and I enjoy making pizza and espresso for our friends. Lately I have been sticking to no knead overnight dough. Do you usually make the dough yourself? Thanks.
Hey Rick! Thank you! I do typically make the dough myself. I use a very simple recipe. You can find it here : https://dev.halfbakedharvest.com/apple-and-caramelized-onion-pizza-with-pumpkin-seed-pangrattato/ thanks!
Yum yum and more yum! The flavors were intense but wonderful together. Even my 2 year old gobbled it up! So simple but was very impressive. Made this easily after work with such little effort. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! SO happy the pizza was a hit with everyone! 🙂

Thank you!!
I found out this morning that my little town in the BC interior just had an Italian chef move in and open a cheese shop. I may have cried a few tears this morning when I found out that he is making burrata and I FINALLY HAVE A SOURCE FOR IT, right on my drive home from work, and can now make ALL of your burrata recipes. Excuse me while I take a moment to compose myself, haha!
Ah I am so excited for you!! I hope you love all of these recipes Kate! Please let me know how they turn out!
Hey lady! I made this recipe last year for the first time and it’s one of my summer favorites now. I’ve been looking forward to peach season just to make this. One of my favorite things about your recipes is how you always use fresh, seasonal ingredients. Walking to the farmer’s market on Saturday mornings with my cat in her stroller is one of my favorite decompression and self care activities. I make my grocery list for the week based on your recipes and get as much as I can from the farmer’s market. I tagged you on insta. Which I already know you saw, because you liked my post 🙂 I know it probably gets tedious going through everyone’s posts and tags. But I really appreciate that you take the time to actually look and like or comment. Now, for a question. My pictures NEVER EVER resemble yours. Haha. Especially!!!!! the pizza recipes. What’s the secret to having it not look like a gooey mess of indistinguishable ingredients? Thank you Tieghan!
I am so glad you are enjoying the in season produce.. going to farmers markets is one of my favorite things to do! I am sure yours look amazing, I just take the photos under natural sunlight! I cant wait to go check out your photo on instagram!
I did that one last weekend and it was amazing. Peaches on a pizza? I really don’t know why I’ve never thought about it before. Now i’ve tried it, it’s definitely a combination to remember! The mix between peaches, pesto, burrata and some Prosciutto (all time favorite for me) is a blast. Everything you like about summer is here: fresh products like microgreens and burrata, great Italian cold cut, sweatness from peaches and Balsamic vinegar well balanced acidity. Topped with a glass of white wine, this pizza is now on top of my favorites list. Thanks again for that one
I am so glad you loved this Manuel! Thank you so much!
OMG this looks amazing!!!! Cant wait to try!!
Thank you so much! xTieghan
Hi there, I love your recipes. I noticed an omission in this one, in the ingredients, as I’m making it right now. Salami is mentioned in the instructions but not in the ingredients list. I’m going to add prosciutto now but you might want to add whatever meat you recommend to the ingredients. Thanks!
Thank you so much Paula!! I am really glad this recipe turned out so amazing for you!! xTieghan
Hi Tieghan! This looks amazing for my fresh Palisade peaches! Maybe a dumb question but can I ask what to use for Italian micro greens? Thanks for your help and delicious recipes!
Hey Lauren,
You could use other greens that you enjoy like arugula. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Salami is not listed in the ingredients???
Hey Rebecca,
Sorry for the confusion, if you like you can add a few pieces of salami to the pizza. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
Hi Tieghan
Looks amazing but we are t blue cheese lovers. Any suggestions on a substitute?
Thanks
Jennifer
Hey Jennifer,
Honestly any other cheese that you love will work. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
This is one of our FAVORITES – so so good!!
Love to hear that! Thank you Haleigh! xTieghan
This pizza is amazing!! However I do not have access to peaches…can I substitute strawberry’s??
Hey Cindy,
I am delighted that this recipe was enjoyed, thanks so much for giving it a go! Sure, strawberries might be fun here. xxTieghan
