Easy, homemade Burrata Pizza with Prosciutto. You will never look at pizza the same way.
The summers that I remember are the ones that took place twenty plus years ago.
It was when you could hop on your bike and travel 3 to 4 miles without your parents anxiously biting away their nails to see if you were OK. It was when you would have late-night prank calls to boys or toilet papering their house. It was having friends over to swim and coming up with synchronized swim routines so that your parents could watch all your hard work. It was going to theme parks and wasting away your parent’s hard-earned money so you could have the time of your life for that one day. It was having sleepovers and putting your friend’s dad’s underwear in the freezer. It was building a blanket fort in your house so big that it covered the entire room.
Those were the good ole’ times that I remember. I don’t even know if kids still do these things?
Life is so serious now, or maybe it always was and we didn’t have to pay attention to the “adult things” in life.
Another childhood memory is pizza. We didn’t eat a lot of it and if we did, we had to order from the only pizza joint in town, Pizza Hut. It wasn’t until college or after where I found my love for experimenting with pizza toppings. I seemed to play it safe when I was younger with cheese and hamburger. Now I want to have fun with my pizza and try all different combos with vegetables and sauces.
This is where my new found love for burrata comes into play. I can’t get enough of this stuff and I want it even more since there isn’t a single store in my city that carries it. This is a simple burrata pizza recipe and I wanted it to be minimalistic. Let all the flavors speak for themselves so it allows you to fall in love with every single bite you have.
You might notice that my pizza is cut into squares. It makes me feel like I’m eating less or not grabbing as much when I’m putting down a couple of squares of pizza.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Pour olive oil into an iron skillet and spread out coating the bottom and sides. Place dough in the skillet and spread it out creating a circular shape covering the bottom of the pan. Pierce with a fork and then place in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and top with pesto covering the whole surface. Then top with burrata chunks and place back in the oven for 12 minutes. Broil for 1 minute and then remove.
Top with prosciutto slices and arugula before serving.

I don’t think there’s ever been a more summer-pizza. This is perfect!
Oh goodness Meagan, I totally planned synchronized swimming routines with my friends when I was young! Glad I wasn’t the only one!
oh I bet this is heavenly!! love the flavor combo!
This looks so delicious, and perfect for summer!
I love this combo and burrata is such a delicious cheese
I hope kids still do those things, but for some reason I feel like the simple joys like those have been lost. At least we still have pizza though! This is so grownup, and so perfect in every way.
Oh, this brought back so many great memories of summers growing up. We did the same things–especially the synchronized swim routines where we would rate each other like we were gymnasts. 🙂 I sure hope kids still do this stuff, because it was such a great time of life!
I hope kids still do those things! I miss riding my bike 1 mile for shaved ice (30+ flavors!) Ahhh the good old days.
But you know what’s fun about being a grown up. BURRATA. Love LOVE!
This pizza has all my favorite pizza toppings – arugula, prosciutto and cheeeeeseeee!!! I love it. Pinned and making this for dinner!
Grown up pizza combinations are the best!
Is it lunchtime yet?? This pizza looks SO perfect. Some of my very favorite things!
This looks seriously amazing. Next on my recipe bucket list!
This looks soooo delicious!!! Pinned for later! 🙂
What a perfect pizza for summer. Well actually it would anytime of the year, but a heavy pizza in summer doesn’t fly with me. Since it’s near lunch time, I am feeling quite partial toward this pizza suggestion.
All these years, and I just recently discovered pesto. Great combination with prosciutto.
Oh how yummy! this pizza sounds great!
This pizza really looks beautiful. We featured burrata cheese last summer on some pizzas and it was almost a life-changing experience, it’s just that good. Wonderful post and photographs here!
Burrata, prosciutto and a fabulous pizza. Life does not get better than this ;). Looks absolutely mouthwatering!
