🍑 Peach & Burrata Flatbread Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads or naan 🫓
- 1–2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced 🍑
- 1 ball burrata cheese (or ½ cup torn mozzarella) 🧀
- 1 cup baby arugula 🌿
- 1 tbsp olive oil 🫒
- 1 tsp balsamic glaze (or balsamic reduction) 🍯
- Salt & pepper to taste 🧂
- Optional: crushed pistachios, chili flakes, or fresh basil 🌶️🌿
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat oven:
Set oven to 425°F (220°C). Place flatbreads on a baking sheet. - Prebake flatbreads:
Brush with olive oil and bake for 5–6 minutes until lightly golden and crisp. - Add toppings:
Arrange peach slices over the flatbreads. Tear burrata over the top and return to the oven for 5 more minutes, just to warm the cheese and peaches slightly. - Finish with freshness:
Remove from oven and top with arugula, a drizzle of balsamic glaze, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add optional toppings if using. Slice and serve immediately! 🍑🧀
💡 Tips & Flavor Variations
- ✨ Use grilled peaches: For deeper flavor, grill peach slices before topping.
- ✨ Add protein: Prosciutto, grilled chicken, or smoked salmon pair beautifully.
- ✨ Nuts & herbs: Add toasted pine nuts or pistachios and fresh basil or mint.
- ✨ Vegan option: Use a dairy-free mozzarella-style cheese or cashew cream.

🧊 Make-Ahead & Storage Tips

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use canned or frozen peaches?
Fresh is best, but canned (well-drained) or thawed frozen peaches will work in a pinch—just pat dry before using.
What’s a good flatbread base?
Store-bought naan, lavash, or pre-baked pizza crust all work well. Just avoid overly thick or doughy bases.
Can I grill this flatbread?
Absolutely! Grill flatbread directly on a hot grill for 1–2 minutes per side, then add toppings and finish on indirect heat.
