Three Cheese Peach & Prosciutto Pizza with Honey Balsamic Reduction
Ingredients
For the pizza dough
- 1 package Active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 Cup Warm water ,105 to 115 degrees
- 2 Cups All-purpose flour ,might need to add 1/4 to 1/2 cup more
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
For the toppings
- 1 Tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 Clove Garlic ,finely minced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 Ounces Prosciutto
- 1/2 Cup Ricotta cheese or goat cheese
- 5 Ounces Fresh mozzarella ,diced into small cubes
- 1/2 Cup Asiago cheese ,shredded
- 1 1/2 Medium Fresh peaches ,pitted and sliced into 1/4 inch thick slices
- 1 Cup Balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 Cup Honey
- Flour for dusting
- 1/3 Cup Slightly packed fresh basil leaves ,chopped
Instructions
For the dough
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4-cup warm water (100-110 degrees).
- In a mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the flour and the salt.
- Add the oil, yeast mixture, and the remaining 3/4 C water, mix on low speed until dough comes cleanly away from the sides of the bowl and clusters around the dough hook, about 5 minutes.
- If the dough is still sticky, then add a bit more flour until it pulls cleanly away from the hook.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand 2 or 3 minutes.
- The dough should be smooth and firm. Place in lightly oiled bowl an cover with plastic wrap.
- Let sit for about 30-45 minutes. (When ready, the dough will stretch as it is lightly pulled).
- Take dough out of bowl and cut in half
- Work each ball by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball. Repeat 4 or 5 times.
- Cover the dough with loosely fitted plastic wrap and let rest 15 to 20 minutes.
- At this point, the balls can be used or wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
Making the Pizza
- Preheat oven to 450 Degrees F. Place pizza stone into oven to preheat your stone.
- Stretch your dough out onto a piece of parchment paper about the same size as your stone.
- Mix minced garlic and olive oil together and then brush over your dough.
- Layer prosciutto over the dough then top with dollops of ricotta cheese and sprinkle on the diced mozzarella.
- Add the sliced peaches.
- Sprinkle with asiago cheese and slide pizza onto the preheated pizza stone.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes.
- While pizza is baking make the honey balsamic reduction.
- In a large skillet bring honey and balsamic to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. Mix with a rubber spatula occasionally the first 5 minutes and then constantly the last 10. ( If the reduction begins to cool and thicken too much just heat a bit to loosen it.)
- Drizzle over pizza and top with fresh chopped basil.
