Grilled Prosciutto and Peach Flatbread Pizza Recipe
Equipment
- Grill
- Brush
- Measuring Cup
- Small Saucepan
Ingredients
- 1 peach
- 1 cup pizza dough (see our grilled pizza recipe to know how to make the dough)
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup grated fresh mozzarella
- 2 oz of goat cheese, crumbled
- 1 handful baby arugula
- 2 oz prosciutto
- 2 honey, for drizzling
Instructions
- Brush both of the fleshy sides with light olive oil and grilled them on a grill pan or outdoor grill. If using your outdoor grill, I would wipe (either with an old kitchen towel or paper towel that has been dipped in a little olive oil) the grates with oil before preheating it. Still brush the peaches to ensure easy release.
- Once the dough is stretched to the desired shape and thinness and your grill has preheated, placed the dough onto the lightly oiled grill grates and closed the lid. Grill for 2 to 3 maybe even 4 minutes. Check it and if the underneath is golden and starting to form grill marks, then immediately remove the grilled dough to a wood board or pizza peel, placing the uncooked side facing down.
- To make the ultimate garlic olive oil. Start by pouring 1/4 cup olive oil into a small sauce pan. Add in two cloves of finely minced garlic and heat on low to medium-low until fragrant and the garlic starts to toast and turn lightly golden. Remove off of the heat and let cool. This one recipe I used for all three flatbreads.
- Brush the grilled side of the flat bread with the garlic olive oil. Top with mozzarella, grilled peaches and goat cheese. Place the flatbread back onto the grill and close the lid, grilling until the cheeses have melted.
- Remove and top with baby arugula. prosciutto and drizzle with honey. and serve

Grilled Cassava Flour Pizza Crust Recipe
Equipment
- Grill
- Mixing Bowl
- Spreading Spatula
Ingredients
- ½ cup water
- 1 instant yeast packet
- ½ tbsp maple syrup
- ¾ cup cassava flour
- ½ cup almond flour ½
- ½ tbsp baking powder
- ½ tbsp salt
- ½ tbsp garlic powder
- ½ tbsp onion powder
Instructions
- Pour the water into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for about 15 to 30 seconds. You want the water to be slightly warm, or lukewarm. You should be able to dip your finger in it and not feel much of a difference between the temperature of your finger and the water. That's perfect! Add the yeast and the sugar. Give it a quick stir and set aside for about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, add the flours, starch, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and dehydrated onions. Use a whisk to sift and stir the ingredients together.
- Pour the frothy yeast mixture into the flour mix and stir to combine. Keep stirring until all the liquid is incorporated, and you can form one large dough ball.
- You can cover the bowl and let the dough sit for 30 minutes or proceed immediately with rolling it out—both options work.
- When the dough is ready, preheat your grill. Cut the dough ball in half and lay out a sheet of waxed paper or parchment paper on the counter. Press the dough with your hands into a 10 to 12 inch round, depending on your preference for crust thickness. Flip the dough onto a pizza pan (with dough side down) and gently pull off the waxed paper. Use the same waxed paper to roll out the second dough ball.
- Bake the crusts on the grill for 8 to 10 minutes on a baking pan with the led closed
- Top the crusts with your favorite toppings, like tomato sauce, veggies, vegan meats, and vegan cheese.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, keeping an eye on them after about 10 minutes to ensure the crust doesn't burn.
- When the crust is golden brown, remove it from the oven. Allow the pizzas to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
