Pesto Zucchini and Peach Pizza with Burrata

Course Mains, Pizza
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • your homemade pizza dough
  • 1 cup basil pesto, homemade or store-bought
  • 6 fresh sage leaves, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 tbsp raw sesame seeds
  • 1 cup shredded fontina cheese
  • 1/2 cup shaved manchego cheese
  • 1 medium-sized zucchini cut into ribbons
  • 1 peach, thinly sliced
  • extra virgin oil, for drizzling
  • 8 oz fresh burrata or mozzarella cheese, torn
  • honey, for drizzling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet with olive oil, swirling it around so it evenly coats the surface. Place your dough on the baking sheet and roll out with a small rolling pin or, my personal favorite, a glass. The dough may test your patience, but keep rolling it out until it's even on all sides and reaches all of the edges.
  • Spread the dough with pesto, sage, sesame seeds and crushed red pepper flakes. Layer on the fontina, manchego, zucchini and peaches.
  • Drizzle the zucchini and peaches lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Break the burrata over the pizza.
  • Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese has melted. Sprinkle on the basil, and drizzle with honey. Slice and enjoy!
