    This Goat Cheese Pizza With Peaches screams summer! Ready in just 20 minutes and packed with flavor, this is a simple and delicious snack or meal that everyone will love. Made using a base of Stonefire mini naan as pizza crust, Vermont Creamery honey truffle goat cheese, and seasonal juicy peaches, these little mini pizzas won't last more than 5 minutes at your table!

    The two things that take this perfect summer pizza over the top are a simple homemade chili oil and balsamic honey glaze. Each bite is an explosion of flavor; sweet, sour, juicy, tangy, earthy, and spicy all in one!

    This recipe ranks alongside my easy-baked taco chaat cups, aloo chana chaat with yogurt, and my bun kabab slider recipe with its many layers of flavor.

    Why you'll love this recipe

    • 20-minute recipe - This recipe takes 20 minutes from start to finish, including prep and cooking time.
    • Perfect for a pizza party - Try this recipe for your next pizza Friday. It will make a refreshing change from the usual Margherita, Meat, or Hawaiian pizzas that people are used to.
    • Unique taste - The mix of ingredients in this recipe works well together and provides a unique flavor that everyone will love.
    • Great way to use up peaches - This is a great way to use those extra sweet peaches in your kitchen.

    Ingredient notes

    • Balsamic Glaze - This glaze takes barely 5 minutes to prepare and can be made ahead of time and stored. I usually make a small batch and store it to use as needed.
    • Chili Oil - A pantry staple in my house, I always have this on hand. Try my homemade recipe or use a supermarket brand if you prefer.
    • Goat Cheese - This recipe works best with honey and truffle-flavored goat cheese, but plain tangy goat cheese or another flavor are also options.
    • Mini Naan - I like to use mini naan for this recipe, so I don't have to cut my pizza into slices, and everyone has their own pizza. Feel free to use regular-size naan if you prefer.

    Please see the recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list of ingredients with measurements plus recipe instructions.

    Substitutions & variations

    • Use a different base - You can use a ready-made flatbread or French bread as the pizza base. Bake the base from scratch using homemade pizza dough or buy pre-made dough from the grocery store. This gluten-free pizza crust recipe is also a great option if your diet requires it.
    • Try a different cheese - Next time, use mozzarella cheese, burrata, or one of these vegan cheese brands as an alternative.
    • Add some toppings - Try the pizza with different fresh herbs, spinach, red onion, caramelized onions, arugula, or meat as added toppings to change the flavor slightly.
    • Experiment with a different oil - Take a few tablespoons of olive oil and infuse them with minced garlic or herbs instead of the chilies for a different flavored oil. If you want to save time, use a ready-made infused olive oil from Vignolifood.

    Step-by-step instructions

    Step 1 - Take a small saucepan and pour in half a cup of balsamic vinegar.

    Step 2 - Add half a cup of honey.

    Step 3 - Turn the stove on medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.

    Step 4 - Continue to cook the mixture until it has reduced and is thick enough to coat your spoon. Then set your balsamic drizzle aside and cool to room temperature.

    Step 5 - Place the mini naans on a cookie sheet and generously brush them with chili oil. This will serve as the pizza sauce in this recipe.

    Step 6 - Dab the peach slices with a paper towel to dry them, and then top each naan with the thinly sliced peaches.

    Step 7 - Chop about half a cup basil and scatter over the fresh peaches.

    Step 8 - As a final step, crumble the creamy goat cheese on top and bake the mini pizzas in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes.

    Step 9 - Remove the pizzas, drizzle with the balsamic reduction, and enjoy.

    Expert Tips

    • Use firm peaches - If the sliced peaches are too soft, they make the pizza soggy.
    • Slice the peaches very thin - Thinly sliced peaches stay in place and make it easier to eat the pizza.
    • Pat your peaches dry- Pat the peaches dry before placing them on the naan to prevent a soggy base.
    • Add the cheese at the end - I always add my cheese right at the end. As it melts, it helps the other ingredients adhere to the base. This makes serving and eating the pizza easier.

    Recipe FAQS

    How do I store my leftovers?

    Wrap any leftover pizza in foil and place it in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag. Store in the fridge for 2-4 days maximum. Freezing is not recommended, as the peaches will get soggy as they defrost.

    How do I reheat the pizza?

    Reheat the pizza in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes or in an air fryer at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes.

    What can I serve as an accompaniment to the pizza?

    Serve the pizza with a side of tomato rasam, easy chicken tikka boti, or some hariyali (green) chicken tikka at your next party.

    Ingredients
      

    chili oil

    • ¼ cup olive oil (see notes)
    • 1 tsp paprika (see notes)
    • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

    balsamic glaze

    • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
    • ½ cup honey

    goat cheese pizza with peaches

    • 4 mini naan (see notes)
    • 4 tbsp chili oil (see notes)
    • 2 peaches (see notes)
    • 4 basil leaves (see notes)
    • 4 oz goat cheese (see notes)
    • 4 tbsp balsamic glaze (see notes)

    Instructions
     

    chili oil

    • Mix the oil, paprika, and crushed pepper flakes.
    • Let the jar sit in a cool, dry place for a minimum of one hour before using the oil. (see notes)

    balsamic glaze

    • Pour the balsamic glaze along with the honey into a small saucepan.
    • Bring the mixture to a boil on high and then simmer on medium till it thickens enough to coat the spoon.
    • Set aside to cool.

    goat cheese pizza with peaches

    • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees farenheit.
    • Place 4 mini naan on a baking sheet and brush them with chili oil.
    • Place the sliced peaches on the naan.
    • Top with chopped basil.
    • Add the crumbled goat cheese.
    • Bake the pizzas for 8-10 minutes (see notes)
    • Remove the cooked pizzas, drizzle with the balsamic glaze and serve.

    Notes

    Olive oil - I use neutral olive oil to make the chili oil, but a different variety, such as avocado, can also be used.
    Paprika - I use plain paprika, also known as sweet paprika, for the oil. You can use an alternative such as smoked or hot if you prefer.
    Mini naan - I find that making mini pizzas is easier when it comes to serving and eating is concerned. Given the nature of the ingredients in this recipe, cutting slices can get a little messy. However, if you want to use a full-sized naan or a large pizza base, feel free to do so.
    Chili oil - I make my chili oil at home and usually have it sitting in my pantry, but you can easily purchase a premade chili oil. The homemade one needs to sit for an hour minimum so that the ingredients can infuse the oil, but the longer it sits, the better the flavor.
    Peaches - The peaches need to be ripe and juicy but on the firm side. This makes them retain their shape after they're cooked. To make cooking, serving, and eating easier, slice the peaches thin.
    Basil leaves - Use regular-sized basil leaves and slice them, or use microgreens for the pizza.
    Goat cheese - Any goat cheese can be used in this recipe. I used a truffle honey one I had lying in my fridge, but plain garlic and herb and even blueberry would all work well.
    Balsamic glaze - I make my own balsamic glaze, but you can buy a ready-made store-bought one if you prefer. 
    Baking the pizzas - The pizzas take anywhere from 8-10 minutes, depending on the oven. Make sure not to overbake them, as the naan can become too crispy.
