A quick and easy summer snack featuring ripe peaches, salty prosciutto, peppery arugula, and a tangy balsamic drizzle on a crispy flatbread base.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 store-bought flatbread or naan (810 inches)
  • 2 medium ripe peaches, thinly sliced
  • 45 thin slices prosciutto
  • 1 cup fresh arugula leaves, washed and dried
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze or reduction
  • 4 oz fresh mozzarella or burrata (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
  • Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Sea salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat for 10-15 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil with a pinch of sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Brush evenly over one side of the flatbread.
  3. Thinly slice the peaches using a sharp knife, taking care to keep slices intact.
  4. Place the olive oil–brushed flatbread on a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza peel. If using cheese, scatter pieces evenly now. Then layer peach slices over the cheese or directly on the flatbread if skipping cheese.
  5. Bake the flatbread on the preheated stone or baking sheet for 8-10 minutes until edges are golden and peaches soften but keep shape.
  6. Remove from oven and immediately drape prosciutto slices over the warm flatbread.
  7. Scatter fresh arugula leaves on top.
  8. Drizzle balsamic glaze evenly over the flatbread. Optionally, add a light drizzle of honey.
  9. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Slice into 6 pieces and serve warm.

Notes

Do not overload flatbread with peaches to avoid sogginess. Add prosciutto after baking to keep texture. If balsamic glaze is too thick, thin with a drop of warm water. Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture. Fresh arugula should be added after baking to avoid wilting. For gluten-free, use gluten-free flatbread or almond flour crust. For dairy-free, omit cheese or use plant-based alternatives. For vegan, substitute prosciutto with roasted beets or smoked tempeh.
