A quick and easy summer appetizer featuring ripe peaches, creamy burrata, fresh basil, and a tangy balsamic glaze on a crisp flatbread base.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made flatbread or naan (810 inches)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing)
  • 2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced
  • 4 ounces burrata cheese, torn into chunks
  • Handful fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • Fresh cracked black pepper (optional)
  • Flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats (about 15 minutes).
  2. Prepare the balsamic glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Let it reduce until thickened and syrupy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. Slice the peaches thinly, about 1/8-inch thick.
  4. Lightly brush the flatbread with olive oil on both sides. Optionally, add a pinch of garlic powder to the oil before baking.
  5. Place the flatbread directly onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 6-8 minutes until crisp and golden.
  6. Remove the flatbread from the oven. Immediately scatter torn chunks of burrata evenly across the surface.
  7. Arrange the peach slices on top of the burrata, then sprinkle with torn basil leaves.
  8. Drizzle the reduced balsamic glaze generously over the flatbread. Add flaky sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper if desired.
  9. Slice into 4-6 pieces and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid mushiness. Preheat the baking surface to get a crisp crust. Tear burrata by hand for best texture. Assemble toppings immediately after baking to keep crust crisp. Leftovers can be reheated in a 375°F oven for 5-7 minutes. For a gluten-free option, substitute flatbread with gluten-free crust.
