A quick and easy grilled flatbread featuring juicy nectarines, salty prosciutto, and creamy cheese, perfect for a light snack or appetizer with a sweet-salty harmony.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 flatbread or naan (8 to 10 inches in diameter)
  • 2 ripe nectarines, sliced into thin wedges
  • 4 to 6 thin slices prosciutto
  • ½ cup fresh mozzarella or burrata, torn into small pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • A handful of fresh basil or arugula leaves (optional)
  • Lemon zest or juice (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Rinse and dry the nectarines, then slice them into ¼-inch (about 6 mm) wedges. Toss gently with 1 tablespoon olive oil to coat. Set aside.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium heat, around 375°F (190°C). Brush the grill grates or pan with a little oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Place nectarine slices on the grill and cook for about 2 minutes per side, until grill marks appear and the fruit softens slightly but doesn’t turn mushy. Remove and set aside.
  4. Brush both sides of the flatbread lightly with olive oil. Place flatbread on the grill and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until crisp and golden with grill marks.
  5. Remove flatbread from the grill. Scatter torn mozzarella evenly over the surface while it’s still warm, so it softens slightly.
  6. Arrange the grilled nectarine slices evenly over the cheese. Layer prosciutto slices on top, tearing them into smaller pieces if desired.
  7. Drizzle honey over the assembled flatbread. Sprinkle with fresh basil or arugula leaves and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Add a touch of lemon zest if using.
  8. Slice into wedges and enjoy immediately while the flatbread is warm, the cheese is melty, and the flavors are at their peak.

Notes

Grill nectarines on medium heat to avoid burning and keep them juicy by brushing with olive oil. For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free flatbread. Cheese can be substituted with vegan cheese or omitted for dairy-free. To keep flatbread crisp, serve immediately after assembling or reheat in toaster oven or broiler. Prosciutto can be toasted briefly for extra texture.
